A sketchbook tour of the year that I got tired of struggling with markmaking. Lots of silly doodles, drawing with brushes, and giving up perfectionism.

    Your comment about "Don't be mean about it, just do it again" really impacted me as someone who is always hard on themself. Your whole mentality around the sketchbook, the little messages you'd write there, the fact that you wanted to hide it for a moment, but decided to push through that and show it to us anyway was really powerful and inspiring. Thank you so much for uploading this!
  • I started using ink in my sketchbooks in college and never looked back after that. Ink really forces you to level up fast and I recommend it highly to everyone.

    As an artist myself I completely understand and agree how important it is to make and show “the not so good art” it’s crazy bc I’m looking at your sketches and I’m like “those are some amazing drawing what does he mean it’s not good?” lol Anyway you have a great art style!!! Congrats on making so much progress 👏

    I love the dedications at the beginning of the sketch book. It sets the purpose, and I think it'll help me focus.
