Agree completely with using smaller size paper/sketchbooks as beginner…it made huge difference in my approach.

so many sketchbooks and wonderful paintings! i love the paintings on brown paper one, they look so strikingly vivid.

Thank you for these recommendations, and for sharing your work. I’m definitely going to make my next sketchbook purchase a toned tan one, now I’ve seen how much of a head start one can give to warm mid tones. Thanks again!

Your explanations are sooo clear!!!! Gracias for another great video ❤❤

Every single one of those paintings are gorgeous and so pleasing to look at! Thank you!

I love love love the fruit studies…..the contrast is so aesthetically pleasing 🥹 have loved watching your style develop so far and can’t wait to see more!!! Don’t stop creating!!

You should be tremendously proud of these sketchbooks. They are some of the nicest study sketches/pages I have seen online. I can't believe I have only just found your channel today, bloomin KZfaq algorithm. Keep up the great guides and work.

Sofia you inspire me a lot. Keeping up with your studies motivates me to practice and study more. Thank you for sharing your processes with us!❤

I am a huge fan of Etchr sketchbooks, but I also love Kilimanjaro sketchbooks even though they are wire bound, I like that they have a 70 lb sheet between each watercolor sheet. Also the 300 lb (640 gsm) is great for oil sketches.

I absolutely love your paintings so much ❤ Especially how aesthetic and realistic they are

With everything besides painting and markers but especially for ink-work I like the Leuchtturm sketchbooks. The paper is really nice for fountain pen, ink brush and pencils and I like the size of the big square one. For painting with water colour/gouache I haven't found a "holy grail" yet, though I am also a bit more frugal with sketchbooks since I go through them rather quickly...I mostly to sketching and planning stuff in sketchbooks, less finished pieces.

Greetings from the Netherlands! I usually use watercolors for my sketchbook paintings and gouache for wood slice art. I love the result so much ☺

I love how you gave each sketchbook a review, and helped soo the pros and cons of each one. Amazing video!

Thank you, this video is wonderful , it is a joy to watch and very useful.

This was very helpful in figuring out which type of sketchbook is best for gouache. Your artwork in all subjects is truly beautiful to look at!

Only 2 sketchbooks in, but I got the brands right and I feel like some kind of fancy ✨sketchbook connoisseur.✨ But no, it’s because I own and really enjoy both brands. Anyway, your work is lovely and I look forward to more.

Beautiful work! A very inspiring sketchbook tour Thank you!

Wow! Amazing and magic forest 🧚‍♂️Sooo beautiful ❤

Always love your videos and art! It’s always so vibrant and beautiful when you paint. 😊

Marvellous paintings, I am just staring to explore gouache and you really show what can be achieved.

The accordion sketchbook!! So cool!!!

This is a great reference for choosing a gouache sketchbook! Thank you! 😊

Wow. I learned so much. I know my sketchbooks now 🙀

I just love all your paintings ❤️🤗

Wow your portraits are amazing. I really like your style. This video/channel feels quite underrated. Kudos to you!

I have a Hanemühle Nostalgie sketchbook that I'm very fond of. I miss having access to their papers, it's not very often you find them in Canada, and they are very expensive. That toned Strathmore one looks great! I'll have to pick one up next time I need a new sketchbook. That's for sharing your thoughts and sketchbooks!

I love your style so much ❤❤❤
