- Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!
I finished this sketchbook a couple of weeks ago so I figured it's time for a sketchbook tour. I am showing you the good, the bad and the ugly, and will explain why making "bad" stuff in your sketchbook is VERY important.

Page 8 is not ugly. I like it. I like the technique and the color.
Wow! when I see this sketchbook tour I feel full of peace, so calm and also happy. You're an artist because you can see beyond reality, beyond facts. Thanks a lot for sharing your drawings.
The "ugly page" lol... the clothes are superb. That's my favorite part of it. Thanks again for sharing 😊
I really enjoyed this..and what a lovely souvenir of your holiday.
What a delightful and inspiring tour. 🙏🏻❤️
I really like your style😍🥰 😎 really unique
I am in love with ur style, especially the single line. Wow!
thank you! you are so inspirational! You motivate me to draw too!
Yay!
I love your art ♡
Interesting comment you shared about making mistakes and that if you don’t you’re doin it wrong…you mentioned hearing that from another participant…i also watch the videos by another artist, Sandi Hester (who also raves about Emily Carlisle sessions) and she says the same thing…such wonderful advice and so freeing too for us beginning artists…thank you for another wonderful video!!!
They are wise words and I am glad that many others also say it.
"if you're not making ugly stuff, you're doing it wrong" 👏🏻🤩
Mistakes are how we learn. Thanks for an excellent and honest tour 💖
Opening Raamwerk drawing is really lovely
👍👍👍
Your one line drawings are out of this world ♥ They impress me a lot.
What you call “ugly,” I call “junk.” Someone said it takes 99 junk to create 1 masterpiece, and that’s how I think of my sketchbook “junk” pages.
Hello Koosje! Your self-described “ugly page” is very interesting. Thanks for another beautiful sketchbook tour...
Kooks I need to let you know- the drawing you hated of the man in his favorite chair of n his va action home. I loved that drawing. Love you girl keep up the great work
Wonderful sketchbook, I really enjoyed the tour! The way you take the ordinary and make something beautiful of it... it's very inspiring 🤗
Love your style ...the techniques are awesome
Thank you for sharing your sketchbook!
Thank-you for this video. 👍 🏅
Your “ugly painting “ i think is the best one !
I love your "ugly" picture, it is gritty, real and full of personality. And you tried new things, that's what it's all about. Love your videos and more "ugly" pics
Loved seeing your book and hearing your stories!
Excellent variety of art. I love how flexible you are in drawing and painting. You have a tremendous output to fill a sketch book in a month, I still haven't finished my first one which I started about a year ago. Mind you, I do have 3 or 4 sketch books on the go; plus I mainly paint watercolour at home.
It's interesting to hear how you evaluate your own work and how you explain what it was you were trying to achieve. Above all, you transmit enthusiasm and enjoyment in artistic expression which is what I find inspiring about your videos. Dank je vel Koosje.
Love the truck
Fantastic inspirational video. I just draw but I'm going back to my sketchbook.😃
Have fun!
Just in case anyone is looking for this sketchbook, it’s a Stillman & Birn Epsilon 8x10”. Lovely work! 🥰
Oh thank you!
You don’t do any bad drawings. I really like seeing all your work.
So enjoyable. Thank you.
I love the variety of materials you played with in your sketchbook, and trying a variety of techniques. Inspiring!
Love the variety of styles. Aww, and your Dad draws, too? ✨❤️✨
He sure does! I infected him with the drawing addiction
Wow, enjoyed looking at your sketchbook, thank you for sharing. So cool to see the effort you make to stick to your practice. Look what can be achieved! the vivid colours you get from watercolour, it looks like marker, Amazing! An so cool what you can create from minimal colours too.
Thank you so much for sharing!!
Thank you for another super inspiring sketchbook tour!
Brilliant and inspiring Koosje. Thank you. I am just finishing off the same sketch book and agree wholeheartedly with the cover... If only it was a hard cover! Beautiful work, honest and meaniful advice. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful book ❤️
damn ... what a treat! this is so incredible and learned so much in 20 min! thank so. much for sharing and for all the stories that go with it :D
ha ha and the "hiding" in your sketchbook drawing while at.a party ... I've used that trick many times :D
Ma'am, you deserve way more views and book sales than what you are getting currently. I feel (maybe it's only me), keeping the camera too close to you while shooting yourself is one of the reasons for low view count.
I love this sketchbook tour! Very inspiring. Love all the variation of media, from pencil to watercolor.
Wonderful👌
I'm in your sketchbook... Yeay! Thanks!
You sure are! 😊
I think working in a sketchbook is more relaxing than on single sheets of paper. A while back you did a tour of your A3 book. I am drawing in an A3 one now and love the bigger space but also the fact that a book you can close is so much less intimidating than a sheet of paper. Weird, eh?!😁
Not weird. I think that’s really great!
we love you Koosje!
😊❤️
Great flip thru as always. You kept going back to the “bad” drawing. And I learned so many things just from this conversation/sharing that is very useful for my sketching journey as a beginner.
1) A drawing will always look “worse” to me because I’m the only one who knows what happened during the process. But no one needs to know lol. So it may not be as bad as it looks to me
2) The quote from your friend is so spot on. I just did a really big mistake on one of my drawing practice and I agonized over it the whole night. I was so disappointed with myself for getting the perspective all wrong. But I’m going to write down that quote on that page now and remind myself that the mistake was exactly how I’m going to improve!
Thank you!!
Those are great insights!!
I really enjoyed this tour. I finally figured out something I always do wrong (?). When I sketch, even if I plan how much I want to fit the page, I always start in the middle of the page with my foreground. So, then it's difficult to fit the background. I never think to start to the side or the bottom. Now you can tell I'm pretty new at sketchbooks. I've been doing artwork for many years, but only in the last couple of years have I craved the luxury of sketchbooks. I know. I'm doing it all backwards. But I'm so enjoying it. Thank you! I love your work, thank you for sharing!
There is no right or wrong, and no particular order for you to take your creative journey in either. As long as you enjoy it while you're making all kinds of awesome discoveries.
Hi Koosje, could you tell me what the red foreground and blue background technique is called , please?
I did both with one single line (continuous line technique)
Thank you for your honesty and inspiring words. I learn a lot from your videos and your wonderful book.
You are so welcome!
4:49 - idk Koosje, I quite like it!!!!!!
Thanks!
Thanks for giving us a look in your sketchbook! I do so enjoy looking at other peoples’ books.
BTW, it’s Episilon not Beta.
Thank you for sharing. A beautiful Sketchbook - I always forget how important it is to play in a sketchbook. And I always tend to use the same material every time. Just one question could you please show what you actually take with you (sketching materials) when you sketch on location like in a cafe for example?
I’m putting that on my DTT video wish list
No…… Not BLM sticker.
I came here to get away from the stress of disruption in our communities by c19 and other things.
Disappointed ☹️
