having a holiday should also be fun/relaxing, forcing yourself to fill a travel sketchbook if it's gonna make yourself stressed and feel anxious isn't really what i'd call a good time :P if i draw on holidays it's because i actively want to, and it's always nice to look back on those drawings

A good tip I learned from another art KZitemr is to take a picture of your subject before you start drawing it. That way you can leave if you want and enjoy your travels in the moment, then you can sit down later at the end of the day and draw some of the stuff you saw. Hope this helps!

I approach travel sketchbooks very differently. I use it as downtime as things catch my eye rather than actively seeking to record. While it’s nice to have a sketchbook per trip, I’ll often fill it with other holidays too 😊

A while back I bought a regular sketchbook to use for a “travel sketchbook” and figured I’d fill it in the three weeks I was away. I think I filled about 7 pages 😅 but now it’s for whenever I travel anywhere and I just make a new location page to indicate where the drawings following it where made. Definitely going to need to try the smaller sketchbook method- once I finish this first one…

This makes me so sad, I have such a different perspective on travel sketchbooks... I look FORWARD to drawing when I travel!! But also I ALWAYS keep one, even when I haven't left my home city in 2 years. I would bring whatever travel sketchbook I was already working on before I left for my vacation. I do also prioritize enjoying myself over drawing, and I take TONS of photographs I can draw from when I get back. I actually tried doing Inktober while visiting my sick mother-in-law in Oct 2020 (yep pandemic travel... Crazy times) but promptly gave up so I could enjoy being elsewhere and spend time with my MIL. (She's feeling much better now for the record! It's a miracle cause we thought she was gonna die, thus the traveling in the middle of a pandemic.) This is one of the reasons I don't let art become more than a hobby. If I started doing it for a living I'd start "grinding" and then I'd hate it. I'm sorry grind culture left such a deep impact on your ability to slow down and enjoy things! I struggle with that a bit too, and I have to remind myself of the wisdom that rest is equally important to work and actually makes you more productive.

When I sketch while traveling it is usually to slow down and really take in the moment. I also enjoy collaging stuff in my sketchbook in the evening or sketching from a reference photo if there isn’t time in the moment. I don’t worry about the blank space at the back because I know I can always glue in other receipts, printed photos, or brochures that I find when unpacking 😊

Hoo boy, that bit in the middle about not losing your love for art and creating solely as a freelancer who NEEDS to in order to take money hit XD I've been afraid of that ever since I saw it happen while I was in art school. I do like the notes on hoarding mode, I think everyone forgets a sketchbook doesn't need to just be drawing after drawing. If youve got ticket stubs, tape, funny stickers, printed photos, they're great to help record your travel while not putting so much pressure on yourself to fill EVERY page chock full of drawings. Banger of a video, seems like it was a fun trip!

Dare I say, your best? Awesome, story-line in there, recognizable. Whenever I am on a trip, I sanctimoniously want to see as much as possible and sit down and take it in. Sketching is the borderland, because it takes time away from running around and yet it gives you the best way to capture your subject in your brain forever. ps. I hunger for being in Asia again. Indonesia especially.

I literally just came home a few hours ago from a 4 day trip. Brought a sketch book with me for the first time and was able to roughly draw only 4 sceneries of the place. Wanted it to be a scenery oriented book. And can't agree more with you on having less time to go brain dead and chill out instead there was I alone doing a sketch while everyone else I was with was roaming around. But all I can say is those sketches were very fun to do. Will try the sticking stuff idea next time.

I am too distracted by literally everything that exists around me that I have no real want to sketch it about 90% of the time. I would rather stare at each blade of grass that I technically saw hundreds of times before but not at that location than sit down for 15 - 30 mins, make people I travel with wait for me (as I haven't traveled alone for a holiday/leisure), and I make a mediocre study, and even better, utterly forget about it. I sometimes go through my drawings I do spot said studies and only the near finished ones immediately remind me my point of reference, day, context, weather and memories. Instead, I use my small pads to get creative ideas that flash in my mind down as quickly as possible for possible projects and THOSE actually manage to help me remember the context in which was made! I just have a small EDC (Every Day Carry) I take anywhere and that has been amazing! Good luck to anyone wanting to find what best works for them!

I really need a sketchbook, because mine is almost finished, and the only sketchbook at my local store is a tiny papyrus (the brand's name i think) sketchbook and i already finished one sketchbook of this kind, and im about to finish the other one as i said before, and this sketchbook is tiny and dont have a hard texture, like i love, i mean, it got some textures, its not like a regular office a4 paper sheet but the texture still isnt that hard. So i wanted to order a sketchbook from the internet, but all the sketchbooks i see reviews on are very expensive and i could'nt find any other sketchbooks, so i would like to know what sketch you use.
