Do you have any tips to share about sketchbooking?
If your simply just drawing random shapes and not planning on any specific thing that your making, use pen or marker and you may end up liking it so you can refine it later in pencil and other media.
"everything has been done before, you just have to do your own version of it", it made me feel lighter in my chest ty
I'm glad :) No one can do something the way that you do it!
I definitely agree with using mixed media in a sketchbook, this is definitely something that I need to do more of ❤
Same all I use is markers and leds
I love how casual this video was. It was like having a nice little sketchbook session with an artist friend.
I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
This is my little sketchbook tip/ a thing I do; lately I've been taking a a sheet of paper bigger then my sketchbook page and sketch, draw and doodle on that sheet and then glue that on my sketchbook. I've been doing this because I'm near the end of my sketchbook and I'm trying to extend it's life. I noticed that sometimes it let's me draw more loosely. It also adds a bit more life to the thing.
7:25-7:50 is actually excellent advice for life.
ever since i started taking your sketchbook advice, ive found drawing a lot more enjoyable. you genuinely give the best advice, its so simple but so effective!!!
I love the role-polys, they’re so cute :)
I’ve been stuck in art block, and seeing you drawing while listening to tips has really helped me get motivated, thank you! 😊
i love mixed media and the tip with not ripping out your pages really hit close to home.. its so tempting to just make it seem like it never happened..
Tysm!! I'm going on a trip & I've been asked to illustrate a children's book. Your encouragement to "mix it up in the same sketchbook" is a great idea. Thx tonzz!!
This came out at the perfect time!! Your sketchbook videos are always wonderful!
Hope you enjoy!
I've never thought about adding to sketchbook pages over time like that (your first hint about filling blanks on previous pages etc), but i love the idea, especially because my mind doesn't really work on "working on a piece in multiple sessions" (i think this is a problem more people are having). I'd love to train myself to work on pieces of art more than just in one sitting lol. Train the upkeep of elongated focus (not my first language, i can't find the fitting words for this right now lol)
The bugs are so cute!! I love the one wobbling on its back 😊😊
Ive been having so much trouble lately drawing and just painting with stuff that this video really helped with that. Thanks JelArts!!
Honestly thank you so much for these tips lately I've been having a hard time coming up with ideas for my sketchbook this was very helpful ❤️❤️❤️
I really enjoy watching your process. Your work is so lovely 💕
I love these tips ! I’ll try to use these more . I especially love how you draw nature and animals. The coloring too it’s so whimsical ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is amazing 🤩 luv ur art
Thank you so much for these helpful tips ☺️🌟
I also just love listening to you talk, you have a very nice voice!
Your watercolors are very beautiful !!!
You’re my favorite creator! Love your videos
I love this so much you are precious AND SO ARE THE BUGS
Thanks so much dude. Also, I love tour bugs, so cute
Definitely an issue to have a messy and clean sketchbook, especially if you’re a beginner. Don’t do it unless you accept that on some days you will draw something really nice in your “bad” sketchbook and then in your “good” sketchbook you will occasionally draw something terrible. Got to alway be open to the process. Really a “perfect” sketchbook is really unnecessary when learning, unless your goal is to create a sketchbook filled with finished pieces or an entire theme or something. But finished and “perfect” pieces are also very different from one another~
I think a distinction needs to be made between art books and sketchbooks. Art books are meant to be seen with finished pieces, sketchbooks are meant to be fun, free, experimental, sometimes great, sometimes bad, sometimes inspired, sometimes silly. I recently heard that a sketchbook is not meant to be seen by anyone other than the artist and it really made me start going through my sketchbook pile and giving them the use they deserve.
@@Melvito2 Yes, when I start over focussing on "oh no am I going to show this to anyone I don't want to draw anything dumb!" I look through old sketchbooks to inspire me by my own journey~
Cut and glue, dude
You draw my favorite animal! 🥰
Thank you for drawing insects 😍🤩
This was great I really loved some of the ideas they seem really fun
Yay I hope it was helpful!
I normally think of having a Pinterest board with a lot of art prompt lists and following one. ❤ then I do a study, then something for fun. To have a cycle going ❤
Love the advice from this video, it really spoke to me. But one thing is really bothering me....
Jel, have you heard of a game called Bugsnax? Charming little game, worth looking into, but the style of the bugsnax is EXACTLY like how you drew these bugs here. Like, that pillbug has a bunger's face.
Thank you, anyone who reads this. I just had to make it known. I love bugsnax, and seeing the bugs here made me go feral lmao
I needed this video, I haven't touched my sketchbook in weeks, mainly because of work, but still 😅
now i wanna draw bugs with cute eyes
I love your bugs ❤❤❤❤❤
Nice!
I used to feel pressure to make my sketchbook “CZcams ready” and thought everything had to look like a calarts admission sketchbook and it really started hindering my creativity and growth as a sketchbook is a place to be free and let loose and not need to be fully rendered pages/art.
I also would feel even more so about the art in my sketchbook if they were pricey. Once I stopped comparing myself and putting an unnecessary amount of pressure on what I created, it was and still is such an invigorating and freeing feeling. Expensive or inexpensive it’s simply just paper and paper shouldn’t stay blank.
:)
I love these little critters! your joy in creating really comes across
I love all the insect friends! Please use one for a Patreon sticker?
Thanks for all the great tips, definitely will use some of these.
im absolutley a HUGE fan of this drawing, would you consider making it a print? i love it so much
I also find myself going back to old pages and adding sketches to them 😅
Cool
and there is a stupid fly on the monitor while you draw bugs lol
i sometimes draw the same things over and over again, could be pages of one thing, in college a whole sketchbook could be devoted to one subject. the more you explore a subject, the better 🙂
❤❤❤
Hey could you please tell me what crayon you use to transform it into watercolour
They're called Caran d'ache neopastel II aquarelle !
I honestly spend more time decorating the pages than drawing 😅 (like stickers, washi tape, colored pencils and markers)

❤
Remember y’all, there is no such thing as a perfect sketchbook! You might draw something you don’t like and that’s okay! Just use sticky notes to cover it up (if you really want to hide the drawing)
I feel like noone is tslking about something that i'm looking for to know😅😅😅😅
