This is a really helpful video,, we appreciate it! I think what my problem is (personal observation) is not being comfortable or satisfied with how “aesthetically pleasing” a drawing or spread looks. Like how some artists will decorate their pages and such. That’s where I find keeping and continuing a sketchbook,, very difficult.

do you use fixative sprays on your pages? im really interested in getting the sketchbook you use, especially if you dont use any sprays because i use pencil only and my god, the smudging is infuriating at times. i dislike having to skip pages just so two pieces dont get ruined at the same time

@sketchesofshay

I don’t use fixative and my drawings still smudge in my sketchbook a lil bit, but mainly I find that using bound sketchbooks rather than spiral sketchbooks reduces the pages from moving and therefore reduces smudging! you can use a workable fixative of some sort too to spray on top if you really want to protect them 👍

just try to think of the “messed up” drawings as attempts and learning points, not as failures!! sketchbooks are a great place to learn, and I think it’s okay to have those unfinished sketches and things you are not happy with. you’re not wasting pages, every attempt is valuable and you learn something every time!! unconsciously or consciously! you got this 💖

You know, I love everything about this. but every time I look at my sketchbook the only thing I can think of is just how much money I'm wasting by screwing around in it. I can't get past the money aspect, so I stopped using my sketchbook. I don't know how to stop worrying about wasting my supplies. I keep getting guilty by not making money off of what I'm using my supplies for. I don't know what to do. It sucks not to be able to play on your Sketchbook anymore.
@sketchesofshay

I used to struggle with the same exact thing, as someone who is very money and waste conscious. And in this economy I think we're all trying to save money! I highly recommend you to buy a super cheap sketchbook (my sketchbook right now came in a pack of 3 for about $6) This will help you make drawings and actually improve and explore your ideas instead of being to scared about wasting supplies. "Bad Drawings" (i prefer to call them attempts) will seem a lot less important, and you will fill your sketchbook without even thinking about it. So I would save those more expensive sketchbooks for further down the line when you're feeling more confident.
