I’m taking a new approach to social media by doing even more “behind the art” and about my process, because I hope that some of it can help people with their own ideas/art/creativity or at least learn a little more about me. So now the reason I’m posting my main sketchbook cover, a recent page from it, and the back of it: I totally believe in personalizing your sketchbook. Make it your own- make it inspiring. People say don’t get too attached because one day it’ll be full- but that just lets you start over with finding new inspiration and decorating it with such. I put a ton of pictures of myself with the Simpsons meme because what can I say, I inspire myself occasionally. The brave, bold person that I can be sometimes gets lost and I want to remember that what I do is for myself, first and foremost. Since it’s spiral bound I have some stick in pockets that I use to store printed out and magazine references, other drawings related to what I’m working on, and lists of drawing ideas. I never run out of ideas, I’m breaming with them, if I have an idea I always write it down or put it on my phone to save for later. (Not so much artists block as just plain laziness when I don’t make something) For the Apocalypse series I’ve been really inspired by song lyrics so I write them down to sketch out, which is what’s in the second picture. Now on the back of this sketchbook specifically I made a list of art supplies I wanted/needed so I wouldn’t forget 😅. I may post more to Instagram than here, so check me out at artkideli on Insta. Thank you for the support, I’m here to learn and help others learn.
