i wanna to win price and itâs great opportunity to boost up drawing lovers like me
really awesome as always, Jess. And your generosity and kindness shine just as much as your talent. I keep thinking, is this girl for real?! And it's always in the affirmative. And btw, how's Neverland? Do you plan on going back some day?
â€ïž a new Sketchbook would be awesome
that pilot prera is so cute btw:,)
It was great, how do u keep others cheerfulp while keeping yourself cheerfull...you truely are a legend
That little whiteboard presentation is the perfect remedy for fears and hesitation. A blank page can be intimidating, yes, but it's also full of possibilities, and there's always a next page... until you've filled the sketchbook! It's amazing that today we have artists like Jess sharing this kind of information freely! Not all of us are yet achieving the type of skill and sophistication that we see here, but Jess Karp is a professional in the early prime of her career, so it's important to look at her sketchbook as an inspirational goal and realize what it took for her to get where she is, and what it takes to maintain those skills. This sketchbook tour shows how hard she works, the process she uses, and the payoff for putting the work in!
I am soo impressed by the crispness of that typography used for "The Art of Jess Karp". I mean, the tiny lines surrounding the letters are just *so* satisfying to look at! Beautiful piece all around!
Thank you :)
Hi Jess, I just wanted to stop by and tell you how much I love you. I adore your creativity and I'm very glad that you come to the aid of so many artists. I've been trying for a long time to let myself be carried away, to experiment and all this, but I felt like I was stuck, I was helped to get over that block and become the artist I dreamed of. Much loveđ„°
Incredible! Thank you so much for sharing and supporting â€
:)
I love how the first page sketch is black & white & then the bottom wave of color carries into your second page full of colors. đš đ„°
Thanks!
Love this new sketchbookâŠso lovely and cute . The calligraphy is outstanding, I never tried it with a paint brush. Must try it immediately. Thanks for sharing
Wow Jess âŁïž you NEVER EVER cease to amaze your viewers! Such talent! Cute video... seriously the Jess Karp figure in the sketchbook is soooooooooo adorable. And the way you've incorporated the large pencil from your "7 Creative Habits" video is the coolest! And speaking of the video, I have a confession to make - for some reason unbeknownst to me, I just keep coming back to that video again and again! It's really nice to watch you dish out the tips to help us stay creative. You rock, Jess! Keep shining đ
Aw this is so beautiful! Thank you so much â€ïž
I love, love, love, the way you sketch, draw and paint and what a great design flows from it. Every time I get creative jitters to start drawing immediately. Thank you for your beautiful and inspiring videos!
Thank you so much Anita!
Every time you do a new spread for a new sketchbook it just blows me away. You are so talented and clearly dedicated. I really want to get into the habit of sketching every day. Even if itâs just doodles while on a zoom call for work. Youâve inspired me to dust off an old sketchbook and put pencil to paper.
Thank you so much! Awesome!!
I look forward to each new video. I can't get enough of your artwork. I am always rewatching your videos! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with all of us Jess.
Thank you so much!
This video helped me re-contextualize how I view the opening to, and the entirety of, my sketchbooks. As always, you inspire!
INCREDIBLE!! 𫶠so happy to hear. Thanks for watching
Weâre starting a new sketchbook together! đ†I loved your music choices for this video Jess! đ
yay!! thanks!
What a beautiful piece of art. I love the yellow that goes on both pages. it feels Whimsical and purposeful, cheery and hopeful. It feels like Joy. Thank you for sharing your talent with the rest of us. blessings.
Thank you so much!
Your sketchbookâs first page is absolutely stunning. Everything about it is so comforting. Seeing Tildaâs character play with the birds made me smile so hard!!
Thank you!!! :) Im so happy your smiling
@@artofjesskarp youâre very welcome! âșïž
I love the pages you created! They Bring so much inspiration and joy! I especially like the contrast of the color on 1 side and the black and white on the other !
Hey Jess,

Wow Jess. The first page is amazing đđ
Thank you! :)
Wow, Jess, you are such an inspiration to us all! I love how you throw yourself into every project and use each one as a learning process. I have got myself a sketchbook but I am suffering from the fear you speak of but I am now thinking about what, my first page should be about. Thank you for your positivity and sharing your beautiful artwork and insights with us x
Absolutely! Thank you :)
I love all of your pieces! I'm so on board with the excitement for what the future brings in our art journies. I was so excited to post art on Instagram that I paused the video to post it right away, then came back and learned I had more time to create something new lol oh well, excitement got me again! Thanks for all you do for the art community and our inspiration!
Yay! Thank you!
Love the page...you're so creative
Thank you so much!
Jess, the first pages of your sketchbooks are almost always my favorites. If they were sold as prints, I'd buy them all.
Thanks!
Jess, almost all of your first pages are the ones i love the most, because they give me the most amazingly motivational and chill pages. And i think this one is my second favorite because it's so beautiful, well my first is the road you did for your first page.
Never have I ever started a sketch book. I've been thinking about it in the last few days, and after watching your video think it's the right time to do it...thank you for making me think more positively about embarking on my sketchbook journey. It doesn't matter what I draw, paint or airbrush, it only matters that I enjoy it. So have fun kids!
I'm so glad! Thanks for watching!
Your video editing skills are OFF THE CHARTS!!!!!! Also I adore your typography and the composition with abstract elementsâ€â€â€â€â€
Thank you so much!!â€ïž
I really love your work, your attitude and how beautiful your soul
Is. I thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful composition â€
Thank you so much!
Just started watching your channel. I'm going to be 52 this year and love your work. I've dabbled in art from time to time. I am so inspired by your style, your philosophy in life and your commitment to your craft. I will definitely keep on watching for motivation but not too much or I'll won't get anything done. đ
I so enjoy watching you draw, paint and doodle! Love your approach to each drawing!
Your videos and your aura never fail my heart! Thank you Jess! I love all the details!
oh my gosh it is again so beautiful. just wanted to tell you that u truly inspire me. i love your positivity. THANKS for sharing!
Thank you!!
Hola Jess. Many years ago I stopped painting. Thanks to you and to the fact that you are pure inspiration, I have started painting little by little again. You not only inspire me as an artist, but also as a person. I watch each of your videos as if it were a treasure. Greetings from Calas de Mallorca, a very small town on the island of Mallorca in Spain.
Hola! I hope to visit there one day. Thank you so much for your kind words and watching! All the best to you!
Jesssssss! I love youuu! You really inspired me! đđđđ Thank you for keeping us motivated! May the Lord will blessed You! I can't wait for your next videossssss!!!đđđ
Thank you!
Everytime after I watch your videos ,my mind filled with positivity and my body get energy to create a new art piece âš I always loved your creative first pages đ in every Sketchbook ,which makes me inspired to create my original piece too âđ» Thanks for being a big inspiration in my life Jess đ
Thank you so much đ thatâs incredible!!
Hi Jess this video is amazing I had seen many art but your art is so unique and interesting from your art I pick some ideas
Thank you
Hi Jess, as with all the others who have commented, I too TOTALLY enjoy the substance and quality of your videos along with your messages and undeniable talent. I am so grateful you choose to share on CZcams. You are young but are also relevant and speak to ages across the board. I am a retired special ed teacher and find all of your content useful and so inspiring. Thank you. (P.S. Can you recommend a good book for fonts/typography with complete alphabets like in your video?) You're the best!
It gives me Norman Rockwell vibes, but of course with your beautiful style. Love it đ
Wow, thank you!
You are such an inspiration Jess! Your first page looks so wholesome and full of flow, I also love that it is in an S composition which looks amazing in the sketch until it's done. đđ
Thank you so much!!
The typography and the details remind me of Norman Rockwellâs art!! This is absolutely beautiful! I love that you took all your own references. This is soul workđ
Thank you so much!!
I don't no why whenever you start a new sketchbook my excitement level goes up to the moon. This illustration reflects you very well and characters of yours and Matilda are so cute đ. Keep glowing keep growing. I know one day you become a top CZcams creator.lots of love and happiness to you â€ïž
Thank you!!!
This video couldn't have been better timed I'm sitting here waiting for my new sketchbook to come in the mail today and was sweating on how to start it's my first "real watercolor sketchbook " I don't know what I'm going to do but now I can't wait to get started. Keep doing what you do it makes a difference. SOL
Amazing!! go for it :)
I LOVE this idea for a first page! It is super cute and a lovely intro for a sketchbook đ
Thanks so much! đ
Amazing! Always speechless - such inspiration
Thank you so much!
You are a delightful young lady. I love your spirit. Your talent and skills for art are just ridiculous and so obviously bring you joy. Thank you for sharing tips, instructions and inspiration with the world.
Your outlook on life and art is so positive and uplifting, I wish all artists could have that mindset! And your art itself is absolutely stunning!! ,they're so filled with life and happiness!!đâ€â€â€
Oh my, what a beautiful way to start a sketchbook đ I am going to "steal" your ideas here as I've never done anything like this before but you got me excited and I thank you for this đđ
How cute and joyful! Thank you for sharing such good vibes with the world! â€
Thank you for watching and supporting!
I was waiting since morning
Yay! Enjoy đ
So cute Jess! I think the bottom part with Mathilda, your sneakers and the other art supplies balancing on that classic yellow pencil is my favorite đ
Oh thank you! :)
Hi! So Nice to meet you! I'm having trouble sleeping & at 3:30 a.m. decided to stop fighting it & find a sketch video to watch & yours came up. You are a very lovely young Lady! I've loved the 2 of your videos that I've watched so far. I never really sketched before but about 3 yrs ago decided to see if I could, then set it aside just picking it up here & there. I've only done bits & pieces but I'm enjoying it so much so far. I have a surgery coming so I'll be taking more time to sketch & in the mean time see more of ourr videos. I'm Linda, almost 65 yrs next week. I'm a widowed Mom of 2 plus the spouses & Gramma of 7. I look after one regularly & she has been my biggest & cutest inspiration. I never thought to post anything let alone on instagram but maybe I should try. I just hope I do it right! Lol! I'm still learning electronics too. Yikes! Thank you for sharing your talent! I really loved your opening intro to your new sketch book! Its beautiful & makes it look like fun & joyful & relaxing Art will be inside! Thank you!!
Incredible! Thank you so much!! I hope you feel better! And best healing wishes to you
There's something special about the soft cover version of that sketchbook. I can't explain it.
Thanks! You think so? My first time trying :) Iâm so excited
@@artofjesskarp Oh yes! I bought the bigger hardcover too. Its fine but it didn't really have that magic i noticed with that one.
I judge sketchbooks once I look back at them and see how inspired I felt to use them. I can feel all of the feelings and remember a lot my thought process. I just hate that this one has went up in price so much since last year đȘ
Woah!! That's an amazing first page!, it's so inspiring, and the work you put into. Thank you for sharing your process with us đ„°
Everytime I see your creations I am sad that I can not draw. But at the same time your videos make me lighthearted. I really love your way of looking at the world and yourself. đ
I love the style of your videos, the effort you put into the editing! Also love your drawing/painting style and your positivity!
Thank you!!
Fabulous work as always. Like a breath of spring. Many thanks for the joy you bring.
Many thanks!
Watching your sketchbook videos have inspired me to purchase a new sketchbook. I have not done this since high school many many years ago, so this feels exciting.
Thank you! Awesome!
I think it's fun, whimsical and you make me look forward to my next sketchbook only a few days away. I don't know if I made it in time for your contest and tech is not my thing YET, but I wasn't even sketching a year ago, but you're very inspiring. Thank you.
You can do it! thanks!!
Hi Miss Jess! I want to say I enjoy your videos. You don't try to be over the top like a lot of people but still make quality videos. Most of all I like how you explain your thought processes while you're doing your work. How you stay motivated and cultivate ideas. It's not just another watch me drawing something channel.
I would be interested in seeing a video where you show and explain how you use Milanote to organize and plan your projects.
Jess this is such an amazing piece!!! Omg, I love the colors, the concept, the composition, the lettering... and the chill vibes and all the incredible wisdom you share with us. Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching
Goosebumps whenever your video is out, you make art look good and simple. "Practice repetition develops Muscle memory in every life skill" great insight Jess.
Yep!
One word: AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!
Thanks!!
You fill me with joy & inspiration Jess. Thank you!
The yellow waves just bring the whole spread together, soo beautiful and thoughtful....
Love it!!!!!
As always the flow on your pages is incredible! Hypnotizing when you just look at them, I love it so much! And I love your videos always so inspiring and positive. I always have that 'fear of a blank page' not necessary with the first page only, and the pressure of perfection of every drawing I put into that book. But after watching this I already feel better and will definitely try to overcome all those fear. Thank you Jess for another great video! â„
Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching !!
Im always left mesmerized with all you do! I cant help to wonder where i would be if i had had these videos when i was younger. Ive started implementing a lot of your tips and techniques into my art and its really helped with art block and staying consistent, well as much as I can with my two kids. I cant always do my art at the momment I choose but thats the beauty of life, we are all in different situations and have different perspectives!! Anyway great video cant wait for the sketchbook to be completed and to see ever more progress in your artâ€
Even*
Thank you so much! â€ïž
Hello sweetheart, wishing you a beautiful 2023. Thanks for being such a creative light x
I love your opening pages to your sketchbooks. Your line work is so precise youâd never guess youâd have to hold your breath in concentration! Canât wait to see more.
Your art is absolutely amazing and very much inspiring. I am always left in awe everytime you post.
Thank you so much đ
Wow! Beautiful work Jess!! Love it!!
Thank you so much!!
The first page of a sketchbook doesnât bring me fear. It brings me joy I love the first page, and I love to finish the last pages and to look at my staple of finished sketchbooks in my cupboard. Sometimes I miss the times where I painted more. At the moment with my family and my little child I have no time and it makes me sad.
Thanks so much for watching!
Very inspiring! I just started art journaling in January '23 too. I'm obviously a newbie after watching a few of your videos. My sketchbook & art materials are not high quality like the ones you have but at least I got started. I'll invest on these better quality materials once I get the hang of art journaling.
Thanks!
Wow! Another fantastic video full of lots of tips! Thanks Jess!
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching
Hope you have many adventures in this new sketchbook! â€đ
Can't wait to see what beautiful creations appear in your new sketch book
Me too!! thanks
Love your work Jess - you are inspirational - hope you fill that new sketchbook with many joyful sketches, I know you will đđââđ„°
Since I'll be finishing my current sketchbook at some point, I knew this would inspire me in case I wanted to decorate the first page of my next one and it didn't disappoint! Loved this video! đ„°
That dreamy look of satisfaction at the end was priceless!!â€â€â€ This was SO BEAUTIFUL!!!đ You are beyond talented my dear! ...I wanna be just like you when I grow up, Jess! (...I'll be 55 in May...LOL!đ) This was so RELAXING to watch....I wish I could be that relaxed when I paint.đ xo
I love your creativity and the excitement you share starting a new sketchbook! A great Idea I want to imitate. Thank you!
Great beginning can't wait for the rest of the pages!!
Can you make a video about your camera and lightning setup?
Thanks so much for watching will do my best
loved how it turned out but loved more seeing your face watching your final artwok! đ really looking forward to seeing all your sketchbook spreadsđ€đ
Hi Jess! I just love how this sketchbook spread turned out! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. You are such an inspiration đ€đ

Love watching your work come together and hearing all your thoughts and inspiration âšïžđ©·
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your videos and everything you share, you are constantly inspiring me and amazing me with your beautiful art!
Your opening sketchbook pages since I discovered your site and all the following years, have been Gems! I appreciate and thank you for all that you share with us. Since I'm currently into needle and thread, I'm going to take that as a lead in image and stitch myself forward into this new year of sketching. Thanks Jess!
Thank you so much!!!
