"The worst sketchbook is an unused one" now this is a quote that I'll remember for the rest of my life...

i think a big portion of the âfilled sketchbookâ problem can really be boiled down to: people dont want sketchbooks, they want art books. instagram has contributed to this of course but yeah sketchbooks dont have to be filled with finished polished art, theyre where you practice and iterate and learn and build your techniques

The thought "Sketchbook is a journal" was really impressive for me. I always want to turn new sketchbooks into "artbooks", with all pieces finished and tied together, but always end up with shabby sketches and such. But in the end i like to flip through previous sketchbooks because they reflect my life back then. Maybe it's just the way it should be
Anyways, thank you so much for uploading! Love your art, voice and overall aesthetic. Your videos seem to be journals too :3

"The end goal isn't to FILL a sketch book, it's to use it"
This hit so much I hadn't realized how much I internalized making sketchbooks into small art galleries with beautifully finished drawings that could double as a personal portfolio, rather than just a place to practice, doodle and throw some ideas down to paper

I love when people romanticize their sketchbooks like this. They are special! That's your place just for you! And I think hearing an only bad sketchbook is an unused sketchbook was helpful as well :)

Ok Iâm a 67 year old female and laughed out loud at âdonât do it, your an adultâ. And I just loved this whole thing. Thank you!

I used to doodle with my friends where we would create silly things together, and I really think it helped with my creativity. Something that stunted my art journey was when I found out I had to turn in a sketchbook to apply to the illustration program at my university. They expect you to have a sketchbook that is cohesive, finished and, like, nice to look at. I had such a hard time drawing for that purpose that I kind of just stopped sketching altogether. I need to pull out my blank sketchbooks and start doodling again.

Another good reason to use a physical sketch book is that its really easy to look back at your old work. Occasionally I'll see my old sketch book and just flip through it. Just like you said, its like a journal that shows your journey. Its also a bit of a confidence boost. I remember drawing some of those sketches and think they were terrible, but looking back they arent half bad.

"The worst sketchbook is an unused one" is the mentality that I finally picked up a few years back. My sketchbook became an almost-everything book for doodles, practice, notes, agendas, and even for brief thoughts that come to mind. I flipped through mine earlier today and saw how much more personality it had and I'm glad I use it the way I do today.

I used to draw a lot when I was younger, it was a passion but I lost it in my way to adulthood. I now look at my old sketchbooks and feel the nostalgia and see my evolution through the years. It just inspired me to draw again after many years and progress further.
A sketchbook is important.

That bit about them temptation of digital to make âperfectâ sketches is so real. I love my tablet, I never pull it down so all I have to do is boot up my laptop and turn it on but I unless Iâm doing timed gesture drawings I end up spending too much refining sketches instead of just drawing and letting go. I have an easier time doing that with my sketchbook. I can just whip it out, get the idea out of my head and know that if I end up liking it I can always tweak it digitally later, the sketch can look as wonky as it wants to be at least I got the idea on to paper in stead of getting so hung out up the details that I end up noodling for hours on a concept I might not even like in the end

Sketchbooks, just like being an artist in general, gives me a sense of journey. When I look at all the pages I've drawn in my sketchbooks, I remember so many things, I feel so many things, which really makes me realize that my Art is bigger than me. This feeling only appears in sketchbooks, as they are like small windows to different moments of my journey, digital art doesn't make me feel that way...

"the worst sketchbook is an unused one" kind of reminds me of another quote ive seen before: "the only thing you cant fix is a blank page."
i like the notion that the worst thing you can do is nothing. it brings the motivation to create without caring for the product entirely, just the experience and the progress in making itself. great video man!

Great topic and thoughts. I've made a deal with myself that I must 'ruin' every sketch book I buy-- haven't actually ruined one yet, but giving myself the permission to mess up really changed my perspective.

a nice video as always. although i must disagree a little on buying a small sketchbook. when i started a decade ago i used A5 and later switched to A4 and i feel like that boosted my overall confidence in drawing a lot and i wonder where i would be now if i had just started bigger. of course everyone should do as they feel most comfortable :) i also have a small pocket sketchbook for travelling.

The committing to digital art and overcomplicating it is very true for me. I've found the best way I can manage to just 'sketch' digitally is opening animation software like TVPaint where the next 'drawing' is an arrow click away and just put down multiple rough ideas as separate frames. Just one layer, every frame is a separate warmup sketch, zero commitment. I never 'sketch' in Photoshop anymore. Have gone back to live sketching in watercolor recently and am really enjoying seeing progress in my technique every week. Physical sketchbooks are a great way to freeze memories as well - I remember what I draw way better than what I photograph

After watching this , I went to WHSmiths and got the best sketchbook I've ever seen! It lies completely flat on every page, not just the centre, it's a really high quality hardback with amazing texture of paper. (It's Daler Rowney) It was only ÂŁ6!! It's the best sketchbook I've ever owned! I was so temped to buy two but I think 110 pages will last me a while yet.

I use a sketchbook from flying tiger, it's ok :) I like it alot! its like 30dkk (about 5 usdollars), but I need it cheap bc I go through one sketchbook in like 1-2 months soooooo.

I agree with you on all of this ! especially the binding, i really want my sketchbooks to lie completely flat. I ended up making my own sketchbook it's junky but it feels really nice :)

"If there's two things in the world I'm afraid of committing to, it's relationships and big stacks of paper." I relate way too much to this
