In elementary school my teacher always scolded me for drawing things with a black outline, because in real life things don't have a black line around them either. She asked me to use shades to distinguish different shapes without ever showing me how to do that. I got so ashamed of my drawings that I stopped drawing altogether for almost 20 years because of that and I'm still somewhat awkward about my "childish" drawing style. Seeing your beautiful drawings with black outlines makes me so happy and heals my inner child. Thank you for letting us have such an intimate look into your practice. I'd love to see other videos like that. 🙏😍

Filming in real time while you sketch and write feels so vulnerable. I'm in awe at how talented you are with so many mediums. I just really enjoyed this whole video. Thank you for authentically sharing your thought/journal process!! 🌟

Why didn't I think of binder clips to keep my book open? That's freaking brilliant!

Your videos are like a warm hug and your voice it's so damn comforting Olivia I'm being honest you're my comfort person ❤️

The way I recognised what she was drawing within 20 seconds proves how obsessed I am with her spellbook series

I love it, it feels like I’m working alongside you and I appreciate the intimacy you let us observe. 😌

This is very ASMR-ish, which I like. Found myself getting a bit tired while watching! The pages were absolutely beautiful and I do like this format as a once in a while sort of thing.

i adore this format omg, i needed exactly something like this 📜🌿

Loving this video style. It's so cool to see you journal about a spell you posted previously. It's like a full circle moment. Do you have a system of sorts to remember which journal to reference if you are looking up past spells?

Love the new format. Thank you.

I adored this. I typically listed to ASMR while reading but it can occasionally be distracting. This was perfect. Thank you!

I’ve had the worst morning and this made me slow down, thanks for this!!

Lofi witchy music would be nice...thank you Olivia for trying new things

As someone with ADHD this was a great body double ! I loved it

I really like this format. Although it's very relaxing I think you could put some quiet music under it and it would be like an ambient type video. I believe a lot of your viewers don't really have the time to just watch you write for an hour. Maybe I just don't understand the point of these types of videos but you asked for opinions so I thought I would share my thoughts about it. Thank you for your great work!

This video helped me to journal again for the first time in about a year. Thank you so much for sharing something so vulnerable and personal. I hope to see more of these videos in the future ❤️

My mom has the same brew book as you and I find that so cool

This video made me want to journal again thank you

your videos are like ASMR for my eyeballs- gorgeous. thanks for such awesome content

A music bed woulda been nice, but like you said, I could put on my own. Kinda feels like introverts hanging out. Same space, doing different things.

Wow Olivia. You're art work is just stunning. The fact that you did the bird claw from Blood and Bones from out of memory and without any visuals in front of you was breath taking. Been watching your channel for a few months now. I love the content. Thanks for the video and for sharing something personal like your grimoire.

Love this format using right now in the background while I apply for jobs.

Beautiful Olivia! So lovely to see handwritten pages!!!

i love this type of content! hope to see more of it!!!

I love this video! I was searching for something like this!

I'm finally, after 40 years of practicing, building my own book of shadows. I wasn't sure how to start until I watched what you were doing, and how simple it can and should be. I never even thought about using cursive... but now I know I am going to do that. Thank you for the inspiration!

It was today that I was thinking of learning more spiritual stuff and write anything new i learned in my grimoire....I think this video is a confirmation from universe 🤍🧿🌙. Thank you so much for uploading this 🤎.

Put this in the ASMR category... I've got tingles! 💆

I love this so much!! Please do more in the future. It is so comforting and gives me motivation when a I need to study/or sit down and journal. You're the best and thank you!

Yes, slowing down is exactly what we all need. I just started posting liminal meditation shorts on my Instagram to break up the fast paced anxiety machine lol love this. Thank you for creating space. 🌌

I love it. ❤️ I admire your handwriting.

You are an amazing artist!

Thank you for sharing your time with us! This is more than a video. It was an experience. I felt like I was right there with you. Success 100%!

Love the videos journal with me style but i do wish there was some talking or music along the way. Also I like how this is tied into the last video because it features the spell we covered in the last spell book episode.

This felt so deeply personal. Thank you for inviting us all into your creativity. Reminds me that I need to spend time with my own BOS .... I've neglected to add new entry since Yule. I do admit that nature sounds or music ever softly in the background would have been great. I love all your videos including this cool idea. Really simple and beautiful.

This is so so so so cool. Immaculate vibes. Very neat journal entry layout. I really like seeing you write about a spell we just saw you try! Excellent video idea!

I really loved this video! I love how you pay so much attention to detail. Even the clip to hold the book is beautiful. So creative.

I love the concept ! I'd like to see more :)

I enjoy this format and I also enjoyed the crafting video with Marshall. I think sprinkling these in are great because they are longer and more detailed

I do the same thing with my book, I sketch my objects into the pages with the writing. Beautiful work indeed!

I thoroughly enjoyed this video , I love sketching in my grimoire and this was fun , thank you Olivia ❤~BLESSINGS

You're a great artist.

I am a baby witch in Japan, and enjoy watching your videos! Since I got my BOS, I try to draw my spells by following this!

I really like all of your videos! This was great to journal along with!

Wow I had just watched your video on the home protection spell and had no idea it would be included in this one as well. I may have to do it now. 😊❤

I love the grimoire content. I missed the music after a while & started playing my own. Thank you for sharing

Love, love, love it! Definitely make more of such videos, if you feel comfortable. 👍

Thank You: Just what I have been looking for! As a person who struggles with focus, the style of video was perfect, as I could retain much more and really feel your creativity 💜🖤💜!

Loving this new format, really helped me get through some of my work day :)

I love this video!!

love this your art work is awesome and i love your writting

Okay, I'm mad, KZfaq never tells me when you upload 😤. Love this video so much!

oh my goodness this was so amazing to watch ❤

I really enjoyed this format of video. You are a inspiration. Thank you for allowing us to see your practice. When you decide to draw your own Tarot Deck please let me know. I will definitely purchase one. Sending lovely and fabulous thoughts to you.

Wonderful and peaceful, watching while reading Borne by Jeff VanderMeer also enjoyed looking at your tea N saucer very interesting.

I love the real time Journaling, it feels like were working with you and I enjoy getting to see how your pages turn out. The only issue I have with this type of video is that for me, it's really difficult to stay engaged in something without sound. If I were sitting down with a friend to do a project, journal, etc, I'd have to have music. My brain won't let me stay engaged otherwise.

Love your handwriting and style! I wish my handwriting was more organic and loose like your cursive. It definitely goes with the aesthetic of your grimoire.

Hey, Olivia, just wanted to thank you for this video. I just put it in the background and I did so many things and you didn't say anything but you were great company. If you decide to make other videos like this one, it would be great and I am totally up for it. Also, your nails were really pretty! x

Lo fi beats to grimoire to

Thanks Olivia

❤❤❤ love this so much - more so that you were willing to show something to personal. As someone who’s FINALLY putting effort into building a grimoire (a 600 page beast I might add) it’s nice to see something like this for inspiration. Thank you!!!!

love it. this is the witchy, non-student version of study with me videos 😂

I peep your lingling-o ring at 1:17... just found your channel and I'm starting to think it was meant to be! :)

I’ve been asking for this for so long, I feel heard lol

I love it as it reminded me of the cottagecore vids I obsessively have on 😂 you are super talented. If you do more real time vids in the future, it would be awesome to have some mellow background music playing. Thanks for being wonderful 🖤

Your drawing skills are amazing, and such beautiful handwriting too. It’s very cool to see your process. I was just craving the beautiful music at the beginning to continue through. I only have the option to listen to music right now on my phone, which makes it impossible to watch your video and listen to music at the same time. Thank you for sharing. 🖤

Do you mind talking about where you got your tea pot and warmer? It's beautiful 😍

Love this format! 🖤 I've been eyeing the cardi set from Ana Luisa for a while now, but money has been scarce. I've been working a money bowl though, and hopefully it will open up some new opportunities. Thank you, Olivia. Always enjoy your content ☺️

i love this so much. can we get more like this?

love this only thing i would love more is if you put music in it as i dont have a lot of music to fit the vibe but awesome video!

Hey, I just wanted to tell you that my witchcraft for the home by Mystic Dylan just came and I can’t put it down. I want to thank you so much for recommending the book because it’s exactly what I need at this moment so thank you.

This was a fantastic companion to my morning routine while I was journaling and planning my day! It was very interesting to see your process for writing spells and see those amazing drawing skills in action. If there’s another one of these, I think it would really add to the ambience if you had some soft music or a bit more talking here and there… just my thoughts. Thank you for sharing your time and such an intimate thing like your grimoire with us. Love your content as always. ♥️

You Super! 😊😉👍🌛🌕🌜 SUPER ART!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🧙‍♀️😊😊😉😻

Could you tell us what kinds of supplies you like to use? (Illustrator pens, watercolor brush pens, multimedia paper, etc.) I was thinking of trying out some watercolor pens but I don't know which have more natural colors like the one you used for the crab claw. That came out so realistic! Thank you for sharing. You nails look amazing too, btw.

I felt privileged To see this part of your life! Thank you ❤ so you usualy do this in silence ? It's a video that i'll watch again while doing art for sure ! 😊

Love this video and your artwork is so lovely! I always want to do videos like this, but my cats would never allow it! 😂

I love love that tea cup!!!! Was this a thrift find or do you have a link you could share? :)

I was into this. It became meditative. My only complaint were the ads. You and I would be drawing side by side. There would be the soft sounds of pen / pencil on paper, paper moving, clicking of the pen and then WHAM! A loud voice with music commercial that would make my heart jump. I wish paying for ad free videos were in the budget, but alas that is not the case.

I have always been so torn about my own grimoire pages, because I was inspired by illuminated texts filled with colorful paintings and drawings that each of my pages (for the most part) has some sort of watercolor or watercolor marker doodle on it. Hell some of my pages have stickers and washi tape. I often feel like its either too much and the information should be paramount, and other times I feel like ... who am I writing this for? I know this information I don't need to write it like a book. But seeing your page with the art front and center and so beautiful is very healing. Thank you. Learning from books and videos is great, but some of the practicality is missing. Like what might a *working* grimoire page actually look like?

crocheting an adorable pointed witchy hat while i watch. I love the weathered journals you are using! Did you make them?

Turned this on then had Lofi-Girl on in the background.

I have been drawing more in my BOS and writing in cursive. Eventually I will redo mine all together.

I prefer to still have some light background music, but otherwise like it!

Love It!!

Thank you for sharing....I personally don't share my personal b.o.s with anyone but my family. But I have a huge collection of spells,that I do allow others to see. I call the collection big Bertha. She encompasses ten four and three inch binders

A reaction video please for the film, Nocebo.

Beautiful video! What is the blue pen? It's gorgeous!

Love this style but in my opinion a little soft background music would be nice. ❤️

Love all your videos. Are you like some aspects of this video but my fiancé and I wouldn’t mind some background thoughts, while you are drawing.

This was very cool, but I think would be easier to watch if there were music

What pens are you using, please?

Where did you find the information on crustacean uses please

You will make a grimoire tour or something like this?

Where do we get this type of books

Just wondering is there no discord server anymore??

Honestly not my type of video. I cant see myself watching someone write for an hour with no monologue or anything and it's hard to read, idk if the point is to read as you write though. Seems like a lot people are enjoying it though so thats awesome. I do love all those stickers though! Thanks for the content :)

No blood??
