Thanks for sharing! It's such a joy to watch it.

I love your art, nice relaxed style.. This has given me loads of inspiration for my own sketchbook.

What a lovely flip trough of your sketchbook. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.

Thank you so much friend! 🥰 Always appreciate your support 💕

Always a joy to watch you create! I’m trying to do something in my sketchbook every day, but don’t always accomplish it! I think my sketchbook is too large, and I’m trying to cut it down. Thanks Katie for sharing your thoughts and work with me! Karen Dirmish, Learner 0:08 0:08

I liked the bird theme, and I particularly enjoyed the later landscapes and some of the botanical sketches and sorta comic book style pages. On that note, it might be cool to have some narrative if you do block out the page in frames, bc that sequential organization on a double page spread is just naturally suggestive of storytelling. The one orangish red landscape that you self-admittedly disliked was actually one of your strongest pages. Clear evolution throughout, by the end things were looser and markedly stylistically stronger. I liked the impressionist feel of especially the stark monochromatic woodsy landscapes. Good stuff!

Wow I absolutely love that flower spread with the fountain pen. Gorgeous!

Thank you so much! I'm really happy with that one too 🥰

Your sketchbook tour was very inspiring Katie, I enjoyed watching you share it with us and explain what was what. That baby armadillo was adorable, just had to say that. Every page was incredible and if someone would just reach out to you about illustrating a book or magazine, they would not regret it! Every time I see your work, I think about this! ❤❤❤

Aah thank you, Kathy! The baby armadillo may just be one of my favourite things in the sketchbook 😆

Katie thanks for sharing your sketches with us. I enjoyed seeing your style change from spread to spread. Like your honesty about spending time to draw, paint and sketch no matter how short.

My pleasure, thank you so much for your lovely words! I really do think the act of creating, no matter how much or how little, is so important! 🥰

Oh my. My head is buzzing with ideas now. This sketchbook is beautiful feast and I love how you test out things. The night scenes are really powerful and I think that might be where I’ll explore next. I’ve spent a lot of time on the Morten Hilmer livestream and did a drawing that I’m pleased with.

I really like your way of working because you know how to change your style and explore different techniques and always in a good mood! It’s so nice and inspiring 😁 Thanks Katie

Thanks so much, Sab 🧡 Changing up my materials and techniques are definitely what keeps it interesting for me! 😄

Every time you post a sketchbook tour I wonder where the time has gone and think I need to draw more. Then I remember how fast you can create and I'm like 'nahhhh, I'll keep taking my time' 🤣. Though I did actually finish a 30 page sketchbook last week so I'm getting somewhere!

It gets less scary after the first time, I promise! 😃 Sketchbook tours are some of my favourite videos to watch and they definitely inspire me to share my own 🥰

Your flip through inspired me to join your Patreon group! My favorite thing about your sketchbook is how you combine drawing and painting to make work that looks cohesive, but you never get bored by sticking with just one style.

I love love the fude pen flowers. I need a new fude pen: the one I hit years ago never worked properly no matter how many times I cleaned it or changed angle with it.

Always love your sketchbook tours, very inspiring and fresh! I do have a question though, do you use a fixative to keep the materials from transferring to the opposite page? I have a hard time getting neocolors to stay put 😅
