Sketchbook Tour | Overcoming Sketchbook Procrastination
Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!
In today's video, I'm sharing a flip-through of my Watercolor Pocket Panorama Handbook journal from the Travelogue series.
This sketchbook measures 3.5”x8.25” and has been sitting in my stack of untouched sketchbooks for a while. Sound familiar? If you're a sketchbook hoarder like me, you know the struggle of having too many sketchbooks and not enough time to fill them.
I finally stopped procrastinating and have taken the plunge into this challenging format!
Throughout the video, I'll share how I approached this elongated sketchbook with various ideas, including:
Drawing in portrait format for tall buildings and portraits.
Creating 180-degree panoramic views.
Using just one page for smaller sketches.
Spreading out across double pages for landscapes and tall flowers.
Drawing collections of items across the spread.
Experimenting with comic-book-style frames for multiple small drawings.
Trying out subject warping for a fun twist.
Filling this sketchbook has been incredibly rewarding and fun, and I hope this flip-through inspires you to tackle your own stack of sketchbooks.
Embrace the wonkiness and remember, everything is interesting when you draw it.
