I've been testing out my new large sketchbook to the brink and I want to show you what all it can handle. I also test it out by painting a Mary Fedden painting with acrylic ink. Art supplies used in this video were purchased by me - this is not sponsored and I share my complete thoughts on this sketchbook. The supplies are also listed below. Hope you enjoy it!

I do struggle with starting a new sketchbook because I have that fear of making mistakes. I try to remind myself that there is no template and this is just a place to play, but the worrier in me can't let it go. I got some sketchbooks on a really good sale and in one of them I wrote myself a note: Dear me, you paid $4.99 for this and you bought 3 of them. Get over yourself and use this because you have 2 more if you hate the way it turns out. Also, they will never stop making paper and you and I both know you're going to buy more. 🤣 I have since bought much more paper and sketchbooks and I have been using them. My husband said he was going to mark pages in the untouched ones so they wouldn't be new and I'd have no reason not to use them. I loved the series of paintings at the 16:40 mark, especially the colors.of the last one that looked like jumbles of trees and branches. I also liked the 4 pink paintings on the 2nd book. Thank you for sharing and for encouraging us to be leas fearful of creating. Have a great weekend!

I love your giant sketchbook!! And while I like the idea, I am still trying to get used to using A5 sketchbooks, which is like a third of the size??? Lol! Maybe I can work my way up. Also, love the window view of your working in your studio. Tell Grady good job. :) And, I used to be more scared of messing up my sketchbooks. I am better at it now. :) I can’t believe how quickly you go through your sketchbooks too! After listening to your podcast with Melanie (or maybe your episode?) on Authentic Obsessions finally and have started using my little sketchbooks when I’m cooking or just beside me on my desk at work when I need a break. And, I’ve already filled 7 pages in 4 days, which is a lot for me, even in a smaller sketchbook. :)

A great tip for a beginner is to buy A6 sketchbooks,because you can doodle around and if you want to do a more serious painting,you don't have to worry about filling the page and wasting paper or time,because its no big page..and it fits in every pocket☺👍🏻

I’m coming from the « watercolor world » and I lost my gesture and liberty to play, you help me to rediscover the way I always liked to work.

I had no idea moleskine made an a3 watercolor book and looked it up...I bought one right away. This looks like my kind of book for gouache practice. Each page could do one big work or 2-3 smaller ones, or even more thumbnails. It looks amazing. Was yours a watercolor book or a sketchbook? that might be why you got the bleed.

Thank you for the extended version! Wanted to also share some thoughts on copying work. My painting teacher has me directly copy other artists work, dead or alive. It's an effective way to learn 'how they did that'. If it's a contemporary artist, NEVER sell. If it's a long dead artist...sell that s#!% Sister! It's your rendition of a master. After Van Gogh. After Mary Cassett. After Picasso... should be part of the title. You may be copying, but it's fair use after so many years and ultimately you produced the product. Think of how many different renditions of the Mona Lisa you've seen on Tshits and such. As artists we can be a little too careful in what we explore believing everything we make needs to be so original. You just can't copy then say it's YOUR original. When in practice & play it's really good and even fun to copy. Like when we were kids. It's how we got good. :)

Love the advice about the sketchbook but what’s your advice when doing a piece that you’re going to sell? I have been staring at a blank canvas for days now lol.

Do you like the moleskine paper or stillman and birn paper better? I know stillman and birn doesn't come in that big of a size so that's a bummer. I started using moleskine when I first started painting and then switched to the different series' within the stillman and birn range because I felt like they handled better for the price compared to the moleskine..interested in what your take is! Great video as always 😊👍

They are just different- it’s just hard to say really. I like to change things up so I like that they are so different. I think you can’t go wrong with either of them. I feel like that was ZERO help 😒

Sandi- what advice would you give to a newbie- I’ve been trying to learn to draw and paint-but I find myself discouraged-I’m going to take a a beginner drawing class this Fall- Also, do you think anyone can learn? What about having talent? I don’t think I have any- I appreciate you.
