I love seeing artists sketchbooks. Wonderful mix of techniques and letting ideas flow onto the pages.

Thanks so much for the shout out Mark! What a sweetie😘 your sketchbooks are looking cracking. I also favour the A5 Softback books. Small enough to actually finish and cheap enough not to stress about! ❤

In awe of all these sketches… just phenomenal… and the print work is great too 🎉 just an all rounder 🤪🤣

You're an amazing artist! You could turn those sketchbooks into printed lookbooks....so inspiring! I love how you just plop everything into that companion book! the best record of skills! Love them all and your channel has given me the most diverse printmaking inspiration I've ever seen in one place ❤

I have been watching all of your gel plate art and think you are really talented . I love your drawings and art. So orginal. I have no art education just started a few years ago at age 80ha. I love abstract art and gel art. It is fun but I have trouble transferring magazines even though I have been able to do some fairly well. When I watch you do it I get frustrated. You do it so well and looks easy. I think your sketching is Outstanding. I did robed to your program. Thanks Sandra

Your sketchbooks are phenomenal. I think your video made me want to get a sketchbook again. And also to experiment a bit more with text and shapes. I enjoy your wonderful videos, ideas and inspiration. cheers from Berlin

Love your work. Thank you for sharing your sketchbooks with us!

A nice reminder of what I should be doing. The ideas come thick and fast at the wrong times but sometimes you need something tangible to get you back to why you thought them interesting, relying on remembering them is too hit and miss. I know I work@ lot out through process, I wish I could keep remembering that. I love the a5’s too. I have been having fun with pastels btw, many thanks. Still hoping to get my printer connected, another thing you reminded me of. I had a book about fish that caught my imagination when I was a kid, I liked the really weird ones, spent hours over a spiny looking lion fish! We had a massive pile of National Geographic mags that I would give my eye teeth for now!

That's a format easy to make oneself, either with thread and needle or a stapler and a paper selection for different media either per booklet or a mixed paper booklet. It definitely piqued my interest, thank you for sharing. FYI you could put them together in a travel journal Midori style.

I'm a new subbie! Just found your channel yesterday. Great stuff!! You are a FANTASTIC artist! I enjoyed looking thru your sketch books. TFS. Austin TX USA

Progress, absolutely! Great how you show sketching in museum with light weight, small notebook that isn't too cumbersome. The mixture of prints, ideas and sketches go together well. Thanks for the update.

Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦 I did a few prints directly into my small journal I like a bigger A4 size and divide the page up into 8 or 12 sometimes in half,

A very refreshing sketchbook walk thru. It was cool to see the little snippets of video on particular drawings. I love how you talk about and show your process. Thank you.

I've never got on with soft cover sketchbooks. I need a hard back for support, especially when out and about. Lovely to see you using sketchbooks though, they really can be a wellspring of inspiration.

Amazing to see the sketchbook of a printmaker! Glad to see printmaking integrated! By the way I'm a fine art student at university specializing in printmaking and i have included your gelli plate experiments as innovative technique for inspiration! Hope u get more popular. but you already are in my class!

Muy buenos los bocetos! Es genial tener registros de los trabajos que en un futuro serán realizados maravillosamente! Saludos

Fantastic sketches Fantastic work! I'd be so proud

Stunning drawings, as always. I do think you should revisit the "failed" illustration you mention at 5:35. While it's definitely creepy, it also definitely looks successfully creepy, to me. I love the way you handled the lower lip, chin and teeth! I'd really be interested in seeing you explore more with the idea of separating parts of a cut collage image and filling in the gaps with drawing, printing, or other collage. Very cool idea! I also love your use of text--especially the large stencil letters with fine outlines. I'm curious to know how you made these, since the one shown at 7:31 shows duplicated line work in the interior of the capital N. The duplicate almost works like a drop shadow. Cool effect! Thanks for another inspiring peek into your practice. I'm always in awe of your drawings and the creativity with which you deploy the gel plate! Also, congratulations on both keeping up your sketchbook practice and on passing 20,000 subs! Keep going!

Thanks for sharing. Great to have a look through your sketch books! So many ideas. I love your style. The ink and stick work is so expressive. I definitely need to practice more. Interesting that you start in the middle. I will try that. Lol at the Honda 50! My first 'big bike' was a Honda 400/4.

Thanks for sharing your thought process. It becomes demanding to be producing "content" all the time, I hope this one was fun.

Also, LOVE the ravens ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

That IS inspiring, Mark! I started a sketchbook a couple of years ago and then it was like hitting a brick wall, artistically. I paid too much for the book I had ordered online and it became just too precious. LOL! Now that it has sat dormant for a while and I forgot what I paid for it, I could be less protective of it and give it a good artistic thrashing to break it in properly. Thanks for the update!

Just getting back in to art and creating and your channel and work is inspirational.

Thanks for making me discover Chuck D. What an intelligent talented man. He needs a megaphone so America can hear him loud and clear.

I love seeing your sketchbooks!

Thanks. I have been drawing in sketchbook everyday. Loving it and totally inspired by your channel.

I love your work and your playfulnis. What sketshbooks are you using that hold up to mixed media that well? And What ink? I love ink and are gowing to try to do a bit more, just bought a bit of colors (inks) and already love them.
