      Kasey has documented the evolution of her sketching process. She used to do pencil, then started with ball point pens.
      I remember in the beginning it was super messy and she went over her lines a lot.
      What I'm saying is,,, give it time and practice your confidence. You'll get there ♥️

    This weirdly gets me in the mood to draw a book full of weirdos after seeing the first page. I don’t know, it has a childlike feeling to have a picture book of nothing but weirdos.

    Starting out with a rounded, wonky diamond, I draw rose petals around the center till I think the rose is nice and round, then stop. I keep making roses of various sizes, then find my relaxation coloring them in. Sometimes I practice gradients and shading on the petals, sometimes I don't!

    Pokémon characters is my go-to. 😊 They are so colorful and so many types of shapes. It also gets my hand back into practice when I haven't drawn in awhile. Thanks for the tips, Kasey. Love these sketchbook videos. Never know what your gonna draw. 😅

    Stickers! I like to draw something that'll go along with the stickers so if u have a cat sticker bam someone holding the cat. Also I like to just color in blobs or different shapes and doodle in the shapes. Like a snail in a blue circle? or a worm in a green oval? Lastly pintrest! I get inspired by quotes and art by other artists~ If u like a certain quote u can draw something that'll go along with the quote.

    usually, I can put on a ghibli movie and all of the sudden I'll NEED to draw! but honestly, when I have no ideas, I'll go onto social media to my folders of saved art inspo posts, or in my procreate saved inspiration folder. I find the best way to find things to draw it to take an art studio class or draw with friends. that one is just... really difficult to do

    I either draw an animal species i've never drawn before and take the time to learn how to stylize it while keeping all the features that make it recognizable as That Specific Species, or draw an animal i've drawn a bazillion times before: a cat.

    I have a list of things I know I like to draw that I can reference when the brain stops working. Lately, it's been Sailor Moon villains and silent film stars. I have drawn Theda Bara enough times to potentially start a cult.

Help develope understanding and technique of shading, light and dark defining shape that come in handy for "real" Work. And when im in the really bad mood I just do dot, micron in hand and just dot dot dot dot my Mind away. Work like a charm

    I draw eyes, mouths and noses all over the page when I want to draw but don't know what to draw.. I never do anything with those face bits, it's literally a page filled with random eyes, noses and mouths.
    I also like drawing dragons, and flowers. One day I'll have to draw a dragon in a field of flowers and it's scales are actually little eyes.
    I often draw letters, I like drawing the drop shadows of the letters and I enjoy drawing neon sign letters.
    Mine I don't know what to draw when I want to draw isn't as fun as yours. You could turn that into a fun color page. Not sure if you have one out, but you should make an adult coloring book that people could buy.

But i have to paint this painting for my final school year and i just want to quit since it's so not ME. But i can't since i need that grade for a good final so i can go to a university.
