I could see mechs being the comfort zone because in their simplest form they're mostly just a series of boxes stacked on top of each other. Take a few weeks to get good at perspective and it'd be simple to draw a couple mechs. It probably took longer to get a handle on drawing the "aesthetic" things on the mech like vents and tubing than it did the mech itself.

My sketchbooks are all pretty ugly at the core, but they're helpful. They help me to get ideas out of my head, to get shapes right and to find the right color combinations.

I know right! I don't get how they all get their sketchbooks to look this good!

Beautiful stuff!! This really reminds me of the last three days before I sent off mine. MAJOR crunch time. I see you referenced my sketchbooks and honestly, your approach is way more similar than you might think!! People assumed I preplanned and composed every single one of my pages in advance but that’s not quite true: I made a list of skills/experimentations I wanted to demonstrate. I’d refer to this list if I was feeling uninspired but otherwise, I’d just kinda go for it. Like you, I kept to one theme per page which helps create a unified look. And you say your stuff wasn’t organised but it was!! 100% calarts worthy. I know for me and my classmates, once we finished our books, many of us went back in to fill gaps, add notes, decorations, colour etc. This is what gives our stuff that “polished” well planned look, but it’s all afterthought. It’s not like we know what our pages will look like! I agree that sketchbooks are a safe space for our art and that Calarts sketchbooks don’t quite fit that category seeing as they’re designed to be looked at but truthfully, that is how I draw even if people don’t see my work. That method IS my comfort zone. Many assume I have a hidden trash book or something but all my crappy doodles are on my iPad or scraps of paper lol. Best of luck to you with your work! This was a great vid and you have a new sub :)

Hello Anya! That's a really good point about going back to fill in gaps and notes. That's something I definitely do as well! First of all, that's freaking awesome that you do draw like this in your regular sketchbooks because I certainly don't 😁. My main concern is these Calarts sketchbooks might be skewing beginner's perception of what a sketchbook ought to look like. Sometimes, I think it's better to forgo a nice page in favor of learning something as a result of 'ugly' drawings. I think that using a list like you, is actually a really good solution because that's a lot more focused on improvement/growth. Not that it's always necessary to be 'improving' with every sketch but that's an aspect of sketching that I find is often overlooked on KZread. Thank you for watching and joining in on the discussion! And welcome aboard! P.S I have a secret ugly sketchbook that no one knows about.

Jackson I think you’re misinterpreting what I was saying - My sketchbooks were one of Chroma Moma’s examples. This video heavily implied I have “secret” sketchbooks or that a lot of hidden elements went into the final book but that simply isn’t true in MY case. I was responding to an implication that is incorrect for me but in no way did I discredit the way others approach sketchbooks. I am allowed to defend myself and my *actual* sketchbooks. You put words into my mouth. I never said I’m perfect by ANY means but my sketchbook happens to look more “polished” because of what I stated in my original comment. I was trying to provide more insight into my artistic approach in order to demystify CalArts sketchbooks a little. Surely that’s beneficial to newer artists? If anything, this video would be invalidating the way I draw, as if we *have* to have a bunch of messy work to be authentic. I know, however that this video *isn’t* saying that at all but it feels like *you* are saying that to me. Look, I didn’t come here to discourage anyone and I’m sincerely sorry if that’s what my comment did. My entire channel is dedicated to helping artists grow and find confidence in their work so it doesn’t make sense for me to discourage others.

The KZread sketchbook looks more like a portfolio, while the average person’s sketchbook is filled with their ideas and rough concepts and just general creative nonsense

i wish someone told younger me when i first started getting into the art community on social media that sketchbooks dont have to be perfect. its in the name. their for sketching.

Like Maxaye commented, there is the concept of doing a “bad” sketchbook to help you alongside your “good” sketchbook that you show people. It is kinda phony when you present your “good” sketchbook in such casual context. But I do think it’s a beautiful kind of art piece in itself. I think it would be fun to try having two - one to be a genuine sketchbook and one to be a finished product to be proud of. Like how people scrapbook kinda! But of course I would be clear about that when presenting the final work.

You're making a great point with these "Calarts Sketchbooks" they are highly curated and so intimidating! I'm a Parsons grad and all grown up and I feel intimidated by those sketchbook walk throughs. Please don't take my diploma away. I CANNOT fathom being 18 and producing a sketchbook that good. Your 21 hour book looks awesome and drawing for 21 hours straight is a real achievement.

You are the one who brings sketchbook 's definition back to the way it should be.

I did something similar when applying for my art foundation programme, though definitely not intentionally! We were tasked with submitting a 50-art-piece blog online to apply for a place on the course and i left it last minute... 12 hours to submit 50 drawings. I did reuse some artwork I had not included in previous coursework so not all of it was brand new but I've got to say that it was 100% the most streamlined my portfolio has EVER looked because i did it all at once. I try to reflect on that when i work now but it is still something hard to work with when you space your work out over long periods of time. Its also a lesson learned that I CAN work hard, i just need restrictions/deadlines to get into it.

Hey thanks!

This video was incredibly inspiring to me, it's given me a lot to think about! I've actually never thought of my sketchbooks as a cohesive whole before, more like a collection of higher quality paper to do full finished works on- I'm not sure that I've ever done a study in one before. It's been a while since I've had that pure hype and joy about art, almost a year honestly, but I felt it today hearing you say that Mechs are your comfort zone. That's the complete opposite of me, I never draw machinery, my comfort zone is human anatomy. When I want to draw but have no idea what to do, my default is to draw a spread of hands, or a person. I've never thought of machinery as visually expressive before, but something about watching you draw that first mech, knowing it's comfortable for you the way bodies are comfortable for me, really hit me It's beautiful, made me think of them as something someone could be passionate about from an artistic perspective, instead of just a technical one, and it got me excited to maybe draw some robots! Honestly, I have no idea what witchcraft magic the youtube algorithm is pulling by recommending me this, I don't watch sketchbook tours, I very rarely watch art videos at all, and yet here we are. You with a new subscriber, and me excited to watch more!

I love the thought about how each drawing holds a feeling and moment in time with each one bc it's so true certain drawings/sketcbooks stand out to me based on how I was feeling or what happened that day. Sometimes how I was feeling when drawing it affects how much I like the outcome theres a story with each drawing beyond just the subject

This is awesome. I love that you challenged the CalArts Sketchbook idea - I used to treat my sketchbooks more like the "art book" and stress over goofing any of the pages. Now, I reserve my sketchbooks for learning, experimentation, and studies :) sometimes notes from podcasts and other learning moments. You have BEAUTIFUL linework / artistic skill. Way to go for challenging yourself and sharing it with all of us!

So true that the act of sketching anchors the moment in your memory like nothing else does.

“Perfect Page Jitters” = perfect description of new sketchbook anxiety! You clearly work hard at what you do, best to you my friend! You are already going places 🚀

i actually find your sketchbooks more beautiful than others, because of how real and true they are to sketching. not every page is supposed to a perfect piece-the reason people have sketch books to develop their skills to make the best of bigger works beyond the sketches.

The ending made me smile so much! Thank you for lifting my spirits dude, this was definitely an awesome video to watch to start my day

I love this video! Ive been thinking a lot about my scetchbooks aesthetic quality and you helped contextualise whats important about a sketchbook in the first place. Beautiful work by the way!

This brought such a good perspective to me about this subject. Putting so much pressure into something that should just be relaxed and simple Is just absurd, thank you for making this, what an incredible video

Thank you for this video!!! I have been wondering and fretting about this exact thing for years! Simply perfect and very helpful to my ability. I have noticed that when I approach with confidence, the art tends to be better over all. Regardless of planning or pre thought.

This is such a great thoughtful video about making a sketchbook. I appreciate your vulnerability with process and thoughts.

"Sketchbooks are not effortless" Yes. Finally. Thank you.

I think this is a great study in composition and cohesiveness, more so than the fundamentals of drawing and visual arts practice. In addition, this forces you to understand what an artist needs to do personally to complete and polish a thought, instead of being complacent. In the end, the medium becomes a magazine or coffee table book of sorts. Something more than general studies.

omg thank you for speaking on this! those unrealistic videos put so much pressure on me to make the perfect sketchbook, when in reality, a sketchbook is like what you said, a safe space for experimenting and making mistakes. working on the "perfect" sketchbook just made me less enthusiastic about making art

cool and calming video! your style is dope yo

Your art is amazing from start to finish! 🌞 as an aspiring artist, it was beautiful and inspiring to see such a well thought out approach to art, and to the medium of the sketchbook! ✨

This ended like a really good 80s movie, “...and this one...this was a good day.😎”

Very impressive... at some point during the video I started feeling weird about the video as though it was some big flex to show that you can make what people spend months making in a single twelve-hour period but when you showed that you weren't able to make it at the end, I respected you so much more. Not only did you try something really difficult like that, you also acknowledged that it was much more of a feat than you thought it was and posted it anyways. It's respectful to those who spend months on their sketchbooks though also I acknowledge you must have spent a lot of time making it this far to draw really well also. Great art, good effort, I'm happy it was a good day for you!

Your perspective and mechanics drawings!!! Gosh!!! 😍

I love the ‘front’ i.. that really gets me for some reason. Thank you.

As a current art student in uni, i can really say that the act of "doing" is another form of practice. I understand the feeling of "empty practice" but as long as you're consistently doing something, observing what you're doing, etc, it's a form of observational exercising and coordinating your eye with your hand. Depending on what you're doing you also could be observing colors and understanding how shading works etc. Any form of drawing is a form of exercise and I think that's wonderful

This has motivated me to use my sketchbook more shamelessly! Thank you for the good message!

I love how this video shows up when I'm thinking about quitting being an artist. This helped me a lot. Thanks

I can’t stay being creative for a day, at most I can only do 1 to 2.5 hours. I just realized that I’m missing the point of what a sketchbook really is. It’s supposed to rough and raw and just, you know, ideas. It’s supposed to be a tiny space in the universe where I am allowed to create. The keyword here is allow. I am to allow myself to create, develope, and grow, and the process doesn’t have to be perfect from the start. Sketchbook is just like a journal, but in the form of visual and images. I guess I just needed to be reminded that I am also allowed to express in however and whatever way I could, through sketches. I’m glad I found this video :) Thank you.

At the end of this I just smiled. Great video!

Thank you for making this experiment and video! Early on in my sketchbook keeping, I was so discouraged and anxious about working on my own books after watching many, many CalArts sketchbook videos ( I've just graduated art school AND I still feel that way sometimes!). I'm just now finally letting loose in mine and it's a dream to just draw in them as you do. Not saying they aren't beautiful books because they are, but the videos definitely do not account for and glorify the hours, "bad" drawings, and off days that we go through when working on art or even our sketchbooks. And like you said, sketchbooks are safe places to experiment and study and learn! I hope your video reaches many creatives so they can absorb your wisdom too :,-)

watching this i just realized: i dont have a confort zone. everything is just alien to me no matter how much i study. its not that i cant draw it it just FEELS wrong.

Thank you for this video. I often compare my sketchbooks to the Cal Art projects and I always feel inadequate, but this video reminded me that sketchbooks are for experiments and learning! Thank you!

My high school art teacher always said to just scribble out the first page of the sketchbook, or even the first few pages. Best advice I ever got. (I always use the first few pages to scribble on when I have a pen that doesn't work, or to do color swatches)

Sketchbooks are meant for that! Hope you’ve had a wonderful day😊✨

You are so cool!! i really love the idea of filling a sketchbook in so short time because i too, struggle with completing one and it does even take me years but i find it so interesting how you kind of..summarized a lot of calarts sketchbook requirements(? im not sure if im making sense here but i love your mecha and your artstyle is so nice! also beautiful work in simply experimenting i love it :D

DUDE YOU DESERVE WAY MORE SUBSCRIBERS!!!

Thank you! We will try to get more :D

Amazing sketchbook man !!!🙌

The kind of sketchbook video many ppl needed. Included me.

It looks so beautiful

I'm really inspired by this video, thank you so much. It helped from feeling anxious about my sketches. Maybe later in life, once I became a youtuber, I want to show mostly of my bad and messy sketches so that people will realize that it's fine if your work is not like Calarts sketchbook.

i love your mecha drawings omg

This was a great video man. Entertaining and inspiring. You should be getting more views and subscribers. Keep it up man.👊🏿

I am going to start my first sketch book. So great of youtube to recommend me this at the perfect time. Loved it

You are an artist and an inspiration(muse) at the same time. Sending you hugz❤❤❤

your explanation makes me feel a lot better about all those pristine sketchbooks ah

Bro your art is really cool!

Wow! You're great! Your drawings are beautiful. Loved it

GO AHEAD MR JERSTER, sick video and insane mech sketches!

OMG just found your channel and I loved it! Thank you for your words, you made me want to go back to drawing ♡

For some reason, I needed this today. Thank you.

Honestly I can’t thank you enough for this video, I’ve been seeing a lot of sketchbook tours and each one of they’re pages are masterpieces while my sketchbooks just consist of bad anime fanart, thanks for encouraging me :)

The editing here is spectacular!

Just loved it!!!

I'm so glad this popped up on my recommended. This is incredible!
