How to fill up my sketchbook by hannah_3110

"comtemplative, sometimes frustrating, sometimes very rewarding"

How I did it: My brown sketchbook (which has 100 pages and I filled all 200 sides) filled 80-90% of all my thoughts for the past 6 months or so and I'm going to miss it. But I've already got a new sqaure sketchbook which ought to fill the void. I took it with me everywhere and took pencils, pens, ink and watercolours and a camera with me everywhere.

Lessons & tips: Don't be tentative

Resources: sketchbook, pencils, pens, ink, paint, camera

    xXmusetteXx is getting a job XD

    I just need to get started... 5 months ago

    I have a sketch book and I really like using it but Im a real perfectionist so every single thing in it takes ages. the good side to that is that im really happy with pretty much everything that stays in there… the downside is it takes a looong time. So im gonna try make myself stop caring so much XD

    Untitled 17 months ago

    Unfortunately I have 3 new sketchbooks so I’m not quite sure which one to fill- I have a mini square one an A4 one and an A3 one all filled with pages that desperatly need corrupting.

    I’ve been doing A-level sketchbooks all year so it’s finally nice to have free time to do what i really want to rather than having to stick to a set theme.

    It has been a long time 2 years ago

    About once a year or so, I’ll go to the art supply store and buy a new sketchbook and new pencils or charcoal. And then usually leave it in the bag forever. My goal is to use up the ones I have before I buy new ones (books – I might still buy new pencils :)
    Saturday I sketched (one page) for the first time in a long time. It was a pretty bad sketch, totally flat, but I know it will get better if I keep it up. I remember being in college, and how after a few months of attending life drawing sessions, my figures were much more alive. One page at a time.
