    Giiiirl this made me realize (even more) how harsh I can be on my art at times. It's awesome that you included showing us pieces that had some "errors" (and still so beautiful) - made me think of how critical I've been this month, ...when I thought I was getting way better at this! Thank you for staying real and letting us into your world! As a fellow portuguese, you're inspiring me greatly to persevere in this field

      Thank you for such a kind comment ❤I'm so glad that this helped, even if just a little bit. We can really be so harsh on ourselves when we really don't have to be. Obrigada! 😍

    After 10 years I’m getting back to doing art again, big mistake of not being consistent. Sure I did paintings here and there. But thanks for this gentle reminder to keep going :) I love your sketches! And I agree about sketching someone that inspires you, I also come from a household where no one cared much snout my art but I’ve been dating my boyfriend For 6 months now and I draw him a lot and he’s always in my corner cheering me on to keep drawing !

    Thank you for sharing this with us!
    Tbh, I'm in the phase where I find myself feeling reluctant and uncomfortable to draw. In my head I want all my works to be good, to be perfect, to want them to be what I imagine, and when they came out not what I expected them to be, I feel really disappointed in myself. I think all the pressure that I put on myself kinda makes me forget what made me fallen in love with art in the first place. Watching your video and see all the recorded journey helps remind me that not everything we make going to be perfect, and being messy is actually count as progress! Thank you for making me falling in love again ❤

    I'm so glad you stuck with your art and finished this sketchbook. Thanks for sharing with us! Makes me a think differently about my sketchbooks that I haven't been happy with. Proud of us both for sticking with it! 🥲

    I enjoyed seeing the Tik tok videos on the side of you drawing the pages 😊 very cool addition! Love your style and your sketches!
    Also I appreciate the words of encouragement and sharing your story! Being an artist can really be an inner battle. I go back and forth with how I feel about my art. This was really inspiring 😁

    I am watching this video shortly after waking up and just sitting at my desk to doodle something myself and honestly, this is a really nice vibe. The part of you not being taking seriously for drawing to marrying the guy that shows interest in your activity made me smile a lot. Hope you're having a great day!

    I really enjoyed this tour and your descriptions of how you've grown emotionally throughout the journal. The way this particular one has a hold on your emotions, really resonates with me.

    You are AMAZING!!!!! Are you for real with how unreal you draw?!!!! Your sketchbook I would buy in a store and could stare at each page for hours. I'm in love with your art. I draw and I would literally do anything to have a quarter of your talent. I'm so happy I can across your channel and this was the first video I saw. Such a special video you have shared, I am so excited to binge on the rest of your videos!💖💖 Taryn xxx

    O não largar um sketchbook porque se tem aquela ligação às memórias dos desenhos é mesmo relatable 🥹 também passei e estou a passar pelo mesmo e às vezes consegue ser uma luta mesmo difícil reencontrar aquele bichinho que nos faz desenhar desenfreadamente. Obrigada por partilhares isto, tocou-me muito 🥺💙 estou a adorar o teu canal e insta, super inspirador!

    Thank you so much for sharing this! Your art is beautiful and your story is inspiring and thank you for being brave and sharing it with us! I’m so glad i saw it in insta and now here. I had a similar time pass me by on a number of occasions and now im happy to be drawing again and starting to make it a more dominate part of my life. I hope one day to touch others with my story and work as you’ve done for me. Thank you again, and keep on doing what you’re doing! I’ll be here excited to see what comes next!

    That video reached me at a perfect time. I struggle a lot with my art right now, because I feel like I'm stuck. I have ideas what I wanna do, but I don't know where and how to start. Thank you for sharing your experience💜

    I love seeing the progression in this. It's fabulous. What pen do you use for your ink work? (Your ink makes me happy; those bears early on that you seemed a bit conscious of -- I thought they were awesome!)

    Which sketchbook is that? Where can I buy?

  • @Zemiaza
    @Zemiaza Před 8 měsíci +1

    I sketched something while I watched this video, something dear to me. I drew a cardinal bird. This might seem just like a bird but to me it symbolizes positive change and happiness. I was born and raised in Ohio in a little town (for the most part) by Michigan. We ended up moving to a different area after a very unfortunate situation and our lives changed for the better. We had to move away from Ohio but this bird that I remember looking out the window to see a little flash of red, will always be held dear. ❤
    The reason I mentioned Ohio was because the Ohio state bird is a cardinal so it also kind of simplifies my home state.
