Which part of the science museum was your favorite? 🥹 🐠 🦈 🪸 🧬 🔬 ❤

Another brilliant sketchbook day entry from the wondrous Jess Karp, very magical episode loved seeing your explore and learn and take us along with you! It was so cool to see you interpret your surroundings with your sketches and your voice over thoughts as you went. Thanks for the wonderful inspiration 💫

I have been focusing on drawing on my tablet so much. I realize I have so many art supplies I am not using. You absolutely inspire me to go back to pulling out some of those supplies and step away from my tablet. Thank you Jess.

Did you see any baby Karptoesaurus celebrating his birthday there? Lol. Thank you for the idea. I am packing my drawing tools and booking a ticket to a science museum in my city this weekend!

Your excitement for drawing is really inspiring and was honestly so adorable! I love watching your videos, you’re such an amazing artist! Love from New Jersey!

Thanks for bringing us along. I bet it felt downright relaxing after your Wonderland experience lol My favorite part was the underwater stuff. Those seahorses!

I spent every day of the 9th grade in after school detention hall because of one teacher. She'd get hacked off because I would spend the entire class drawing. But what REALLY torqued her off is I would ace her exam every Friday. It was many years after I graduated that a study showed that drawing during a lecture is an excellent way to retain knowledge.

The moment you found the nest and then made a sketch of it! the magic of creativity! wow! Thank you for taking us with you. ♥♥♥

I loved everything about this video! Museums are one of the best places for inspiration 🥹 I absolutely loved your drawings, especially the first sketches! I mean, that drawing stance made the process more fun to see 😂 That made me laugh a lot. Thank you as always for sharing your experiences, I feel so inspired right now. You made me remember how much I love dinos, and I'm now wondering why I never drew them. I'll be on my sketchbook the second I finish writing this. 😄 Shout out to the person that filmed you as well, the shots are incredibly beautiful!

This reminds me of the countless hours I spent in the old musty Natural History Museum in Boston. It’s off the beaten trail behind Harvard Law School. The tall stone building is a labyrinth hallways and halls filled with cases of preserved specimens; plants, bugs, gems, and taxidermy. I had free admittance with my art school ID so I could for just an hour or all afternoon. I loved getting lost in the details of plants and animals. Ten years and 5 kids later, my trips to museums look a lot different! 😅 I love seeing the wonder through their eyes but there’s always a part of me longing to slow down for minute and sketch! Thanks for sharing journey 😊

The ‘learning to fly’ bird is so beautiful. ❤

Yes, drawing is learning and feeling!! 💯 !!! Very inspired by the quick sketches- outline and hatching. No huge commitment just working on mark making and looking and learning and having fun. Loved that you went from a baby dinosaur in spray paint to real Dino’s. 😊 And I loved the end sitting under the fish. If you are ever in N Cali, the Monterey Aquarium is to die for.

This is so inspiring ❤ I love your dinosaur drawings, there's something really wonderful about how you've managed to bring life, power, movement and character to long extinct animals

Thanks for bringing us along Jess. A wonderful sketchbook session full of reflection. A joy to join you as always. Till next time

La tilde!!!! "car-NÍ-vo-ros" 😂😂😂

This museum takes 6 days minimum. I would get lost in themes there.

I’m going for a master’s in museum studies, but I’m also an artist. Seeing you combine a love for learning and creating has been a blessing and a reminder for me to pick up the pen once again- even if for a few minutes.

I am totally doing this when I go to the museum next week!

I absolutely loved this video. I'm an illustrator by trade but with 20+ years in the game have evolved into more of a graphic designer/branding identity professional artist. Over the years with work and family, I've lost the time and impetus to dive into my sketchbook like I used to right out of school. I stumbled into your channel after doing a YT search for the best travel art kit, and have since devoured your content when given the chance. This video in particular reminded me of how much O love to draw from life (especially animals and science)! Thank you for the inspiration 💡✨

What a great view in this spectacular museum. But also incredible are the first two sites in the new sketchbook …wow …I’ve no words …WOW

This is my favorite video ever it really made me smile and feel happy during my depression

Watching this is so calm and peaceful. I love your sketchbook pages. This seems like a really cool place to explore.

These sketchbook dates bring me so much calm and inspiration☺️

I’m just a few minutes into the video and I’m already impressed!! I loveee you’re way of making these videos, the talking about things while drawing and having the existing moments with us! I’m in love with this video already ❤❤❤

Every time I watch one of your videos I manage to tear up. I’m so touched by your passion for creating and your sincere and genuine connection to the earth and all the gifts it has to offer. You inspire me to make more of an effort to get out there and create. Thank you for sharing your life and talent with us🙏🏻

Hullo Jess, I have to say that I am truly amazed by your dedication to your craft! After the momentous event in Michigan I was thinking that you would be taking a break, NO! Here you are creating a beautifully wonderful video with awe inspiring artworks! Truly amazing! I remember when I was hired to do a mural for a dive shop. I went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and took pictures of whales, dolphins and sharks! This is where they shot StarTrek IV the humpback whale movie. I have the fondest memories of my visit as well as some terrific pictures too! I loved your Spoonbills & Seahorse drawings, breathtaking! As is all of your art. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.

It was beautiful I'm at awe to see your perspective, that is an artist's perspective to the scientific world I feel ,nature inspires us to create art and hence we study arts through Nature And science is actually the study of nature itself It's really really amazing to see how beautiful science is just like arts and I feel really grateful to have very deep interest in both of these nature studies I literally want to thank u for showing your perspective and showing that everything scientific is beautiful ,which many people perceive boring Your literally a blessing to this world I love your artistic perspective Jess Keep inspiring and please keep making more videos like this sketchbook date It was the most beautiful and interesting sketchbook dates ever I'm feeling blessed to have found you three years back and I'm just a high schooler growing with you and learning and creating perspectives My favourite part was definitely the space section cuz I'm a space enthusiast

This was such a fun visual journey! And I loved that you included some of the knowledge you picked up along the way. Thank you for a great “trip”

What a wonderful video, thank you for sharing. Everything was so nice to see, but I think the Seahorses were my favorite. They are such a interesting little creature. I loved the sketch you did of one. I could watch you draw all day. Your creations on page is amazing. 😊💜

Freehanding perfectly. Jess, your talent is awesome

🤗 was stoked to see a new video from you❣️ I love when you're all, "ok...I'm gonna go right in with some PEN.." b/c that's how I'm used to working, too 😌 however, after viewing several successful working artists (incl. YOU!)...now I've started to try pencil sketching ahead of putting ink or color 💫❣️

Your videos are so peaceful and positive and beautiful, they leave me feeling inspired and happy. Thank you my dear ❤

Ah that was so lovely. I have been doing more plein air painting this year and it is always so calm and relaxing. Not always the best weather for it. So I may have to take a museum trip too. So inspiring.

This video has been both nostalgic and inspirational. When my children were young, I used to regularly visit all my city's museums and zoos but as a empty nester I haven't been in a while. I'm gonna plan a visit.

Your work is amazing. I love how you have achieved your finished overall pieces with things around you at such a limited time . I wouldnt be able to achieve such a breathtaking finish. On a limited timeframe but this has made me realise anything could be possible so thank you so much for this amazing video

This is such a fun and inspiring video! I loved the mix of museum footage, your reactions, and your art.

A Bambi-Raptor? Seriously! LOL! Okay, you *have* to draw what a Bambi-Raptor might look like. :D Cute little baby deer, huuuuge ripping teeth and claws...? :)

This is really intresting idea i think i should do this too in other places

I love this video sooo much! Your art and positivity is so inspiring!Never stop be your self! Because you are beautiful, talented and amazing from inside out!!!

This is a very overwhelming place! Where I live these would be about 3-4 different museums/zoos at least (we don't put living animals in museums, they would live in a zoo or aquarium).

Watching this made me recall the day I went to a museum to sketch too, it was such a surreal experience I didn't want to leave haha. I was there with friends and didn't expect museums to be such an amazing place to sketch at. Watching this makes me want to make another sketchbook trip there. I love seeing how your channel is so random, you can never expect what Jess will do next and that is so fun. Also I love to see the childlike excitement when you draw, so many people nowadays are so sad and sour it's rare to see someone truly enjoy their time like this, I am also quite like you in this aspect, I just can't stop smiling and getting excited over every small interesting things in life.

You really are an amazing artist that inspires to just freaking do it! I would be too nervous to sketch in public but if I had your talent, I would flex like no other. Love what you did with Alice and is framed on my walls. Can't wait to see what else you will bless us with

The way you captured the animals' likeness and habits is amazing! I really enjoyed watching you take your time in drawing them in real time. Plein air painting in a museum looks fun!

I so look forward to your sketchbook dates! They're so inspiring 💜

Thanks for taking us along. What a rad experience. Definitely fills the mental reference library. Your openness to new information and experiences make these "dates" so exciting and fun. Pilahuk.

I came here due to watching smoe nova and seeing how well U done in artists in wonderland and I'm very pleased to say that I'm not disappointed. Keep up the amazing work. Hope to see you put that can work U learned to use at some point

It's been a long time since I'v been to the Paleontological Museym! I will definitely go there to draw as in my student years.)) Thanks for remending me of that.🙏🫶 Your drawings are cool!👍Greetings from Moscow🤝

I always get inspired to draw from life after watching your videos. I think my favorite part was that pink bird building a nest. So cute. Also the last room with the fish on the ceiling. I would have sat there for hours! XOXO From North Carolina

Good afternoon, Jess and my favorite was when you were looking at the fish which kept coming back to you, and your reflection resembled the Little Mermaid reaching at something. Thank you for the Sketchbook date and hope there will be many more. Enjoy the rest of your day.

Those learning to fly dinosaurs had the dopiest little faces! How stinking cute. I’ve seen that big circle aquarium in quite a few videos and photos lately, what science museum is this?

Your work inspires me every time! And the aquarium section was so beautiful!

Another incredible video Jess!! I love seeing all your sketches, it’s so inspiring! 🥰

Awesome job Jess, the sketches came out great!!

That museum was quite awesome with a variety of interests. Your sketches are really phenomenal. I am always wowed how you craft the pieces together to make beautiful art.

What a project! Nothing is too daunting for you, LOL. So fascinating! I LOVE museums and this one was a gem. Such an amazing place! What a great learning experience not only for drawing but managing your time and process by choosing only the important strokes to create the image. Just imagine the budding artists you've inspired there just by witnessing your process! This could be a watershed moment in their young lives!

I wish I could draw and paint like you! Such an inspiration, my daughter and I love watching your videos, and she keeps trying to teach herself because she wants to be like you!

I love such sketching adventures so much! But I draw slow, so cannot make total spread in one sketchbook date. Jess, I love the vibe if this video so so much! You are delightful!

Definitely gifted and driven🎉❤😊

Wow. Beautiful museum ❤❤❤. Another amazing video ❤❤❤

Great video, very inspiring, makes me want to get back into drawing. So glad I found your channel.

Woah this is so cool! I actually had the same idea last week and filmed at a zoo to see how much art I could make, that was hard but there's way more here!! 😮 crazy challenge, I always love watching these 🥰

That was so much fun! Thank you, Jess.

Jess’s video always touches my heart ❤❤❤❤

Absolutely loved this video!! I want to go to the science museum now and draw 😍

Such a fun and inspiring video!! I am obsessed with absolutely everything you make. I am going on vacation soon and i am so excited to urban sketch.
