My handwriting looks like a tidy elementary school student wrote it, especially my cursive. :S
Kasey Golden hiii Kasey!
I know what you mean! My cursive has been compared to ancient texts...
Oh my, at least that sounds more impressive than "child." :1
Kasey Golden , I didn't know you watched this channel! So cool
Kasey Golden everyone calls my handwriting Hyrogliphics
Imagine if everyone's comments were in their own handwriting..
squeakyhammer Wow that would be so cool
That would make the internet so much more interesting
squeakyhammer
What about the bots
Or kids
Nobody could read mine...
Yikes
Was your Grandad planning on building another Hogwarts ? Ha omg he was so talented ❤️❤️❤️
Yay another potter head ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
Potter heads hooray
I have an old book my grandmother gave me when I was like 5. I can remember going to another state to visit her with my mom. I thought we were just going to visit. I remember she was old and blind, and told me to pick something out (from her house) that I would like to have. She had lots of interesting things and I thought I was just getting a gift. I didn't know she was on home hospice, that she was going to die and wanted to leave me something. I remember picking it out and being very happy with my present. It's still on my shelf. I just finished college for writing. Funny how things become more clear as you grow up. That was the only time I got to see her, that trip. She passed while we were there. But I remember, and I love her.
Aww.
None of my family drew except my great great grandmother she painted but I never got to meet her of course
same
Alyssa's Channel is there any remnants of her work for your family?
Alyssa's Channel I am the same
Same except it was my great grandmother I met her when I was young and she died when my first sister was born. And her son threw all of her art supplies away except for a couple of things
Hey my names Alyssa too! And I don't think anyone in my family draws beside my brother but he draws off and on.
Everything is so cool, I would love a story time of this.
Thank you so much!
any chance that your grand dad actually studied architecture or was an architect? because i'm an architecture student and we do the same thing! the details of the walls/columns/ceilings etc. especially the fact that he wrote definitions or descriptions of each drawings, architects' main medium are inks as well
Elisa Shay yeah that's what I was thinking too. the way he drew the lines above and below the text is like what you do when hand lettering. he may have taken a drafting/architecture class because this stuff is similar to what I do in my drafting class at school
He was Definetely into architecture. His use of ink is so amazing, the detail and texture are on a professional level.
Elisa Shay I had the same thought going through this video... I am also an architecture student
I thought the same thing too....I've studied architecture and we made these details as a part of our architectural history class😄 awesome memories - this sketchbook tour brought back so many memories
Saame!! I currently study architecture and we do these the same!
My handwriting is ancient egyptian hieroglyphics.
Lol same
That is indeed very talented
That's the best kind wym
Oh, wow. This sketchbook is nearly 3x older than me. I'm glad you had it gifted to you. :o
We are so happy to have it finally safe and sound with us also!
Haha it's nearly 5 times older than me
It’s 5X older than me... woah 0-0
It’s like 5 or 6 x older them me
About 6.8x older than me...
“It smells so good, it smells old” 😂
75 years ago...
*oh that is so good. Wow you must have been talented!*
75 years from now...
*oh anime*
@Orlieo _ I think what they mean is just how much art has simplified and stylized since then, today anime and cartoons are valid art forms but back then this was what was considered art. You can't really deny that comparing art back then to art now (compare your sketchbook to this one) and then take into consideration the mediums they used as well, it's definitely more finely crafted? More detailed and true to life so to speak.
I guess to op they just think its a step down from quality, they think its less impressive and truth be told, yea, its beautiful but compared to that it is less impressive, because anime is what I'm used to seeing so seeing all this old art wows me.
But ye, dont be so sensitive, this guy was just expressing their opinion, not invalidating anime as an art form. They just think anime is less impressive and if you dont agree with that its okay, you're both still valid anyway.
Edit: Thanks for coming to *my* TED talk.
Feel ya bro
I know. Everytime someone sees any form of art it's just *anime* now.

My sisters and mom are always like why is your handwriting so messy but then at school everyone always compliments my handwriting 😂 I always thought that was weird
sAME
Relatable!
Isn't amazing that this one book is a part of history? Steph your grandfather was an amazing artist, and although not exactly, you've followed in his footsteps and become an amazing artist yourself as well! Loved this video, and also Adam complimenting and showing so much admiration to your grandfather's work was so charming! Love you guys!
Omg your grandad was so talented!!
His linework is so beautiful! ;__;
Wow nice artist family😁😁😁
Thank you so much!!
if my future grandkids were ever to be like "Oh looks it grandma's old sketchbook, lets look inside!" Im pretty sure they would be confused, mortified and would probably laugh XD The art of today is MUCH diffrent than it was back then (and plus im not very good lol) Anyway, thanks for sharing this, your grandfather's sketchbook is awesome!
my handwriting is like if a person tried to write cursive but didn't quite get the idea of it
You guys have been so inspiring and I have started to draw a lot more and be happy with my art!!! I want to thank you for making these videos and tell you to keep doing what your doing!!!
Aww this makes us so happy to hear!! Thank you! :D
Your grandfather's drawings are *WONDERFUL* !!! I really love it!!! That sketchbook, is very precious.... I'd really like to see it in person.... And your grandfather's writing is just simply *gorgeous* ...
I wish l could draw just like your granddad
Bc he wrote in *beautiful* style
V YoonKookHobie armyyyyyy!
Mint Yoontea yaaaaay
V YoonKookHobie ikr
Just because you can draw it don’t mean you can write pretty. I writeso ugly but my paintings are really good
I think good handwriting was actually very common back then. I do remember going to a WW2 exhibition and saw the letters. They all had amazing handwriting. Heck, just search up old letters and you'll see a ton more. It could be because they were more religious back then, because my dad told me priests would teach cursive handwriting when they were kids, although I'm not so sure about that. He's from Iran, so things could've been different there. But yeah, I just find their handwritings super interesting. I've been trying to write in cursive too lately, and it's pretty fun. I think you should do that too! :)
My hand writing is either so good, or it's a whole mess. I'm really bad with spacing, partly because I usually write so fast and I don't think about it.
HAHA same!!
I died when I saw the notification for this, I love you guys so much
Marissa Fedor same lmao
Marissa Fedor same
Same problem Here..
HAPPY FRIDAY! This is a really sweet idea, and I'm looking forward to watching the video. I hope you're all feeling well (Adam, Steph and everybody watching), remember to sleep, eat and stay hydrated!
We hope you have a wonderful day!!
shiverfawkes That's very sweet of you to say! God bless you!
This was so wholesome. I have had to say a lot of goodbyes in the past few years and this just felt so satisfying, I guess in seeing something magical live on. Love you two 💛
My daughter told me all about this video and then we sat down and watched it together. This was so amazing! Thank you for sharing your grandfather’s incredible art sketchbook!! He was masterful and we are very inspired by his work!💖💖💖
Woah your Grandad’s handwriting and art is so amazing. How?! 😱 Love you videos :)
I wish we knew his secret as well LOL
Oh my gosh I'm so excited for this ❤💚 just ate an hour ago laying in bed ready to watch and enjoy
Also definitely related to Steph!!
Aww! We hope you enjoy the video!!
Doodle Date almost don't with it!! It's amazing and so much time and thought was put into it!!
really excellent detail of architectural design

I nearly started crying watching this.
So so happy.
😢☺
I would love to have a story time!
This video was so cute and amazing. I bet your grandfather was amazing. He was an amazing artist! I can tell where you get your inspiration 😉
D'aww thank you so much! It really means a lot!
My handwriting looks like a toddlers
Alyssa's Channel same
Alyssa's Channel same
Alyssa's Channel same....
Alyssa's Channel SSSAAAAAMMMMMEEEEE
Same xD
Wow, this is so special. Thank you for sharing this with us, now your grandpa's work can be appreciated all over the world. What an amazing piece of history you have there!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful book your grandfather had made. Looking forward to future videos from you both, even a chill story time from this book for sure! It's so nice to be able to draw and listen to what either of you have to say.
Its so beautiful!! now I know where Steph's artistic ability came from!
Aww! thank you so much!!
My handwriting is barely legible unless I try really hard
This video was really cool to watch but at the riders drawing at the end there it sort of hit me. The drawing had a mushroom cloud on it, or at least it looked like so. 1941-1942...these were drawings at the end of the Second World War. I find it even more amazing now.
I'm sure it's a tree, though--it's probably an illustration for the novel "Lorna Doone".
Oh my this is so beautiful, I remember looking at my dad drawing back when I was little. He doesn't do it anymore but I still have a lot of his paintings and drawing. This remained me of that feeling
IVE MISSED THE PAST 5 DOODLE DATE VIDEOS SO I HAVE BEEN BINGING ALL MORNING
It is lovely to see you again Lillian!!
Hey guys I wanted to tell you I'm so happy your on TH-cam your the happiest channel I'm sorry sorry your granddad passed away!
You are so sweet to us Mylie!!
Thank you for sharing this with us, I love things to do with antiques and older things, I love old art so much!
This is so amazing, looking back at his art is lovely and I bet hes so happy that you can now appreciate his art and techniques. Thank you so much for sharing this!!
Your grandad must have been quite inspirational to you as a 15 year old just bless him for being awesome
I love how you take after your grandfather with your love of ink and dip pens. They are so detailed. :O
My handwriting is so bad a teacher once cut 10 marks from my paper for it and refused to admit that my answers were correct........everyone ELSE could read it though
Sanya Tyagi your teacher sounds like a jerk
Sanya Tyagi yeah typically teachers they never change
This is so awesome. Thank you for sharing this piece of history with us!
That cover on the sketchbook is so cool!
Ellie O'Connor nice profile pic 😂
Yay doodle date! 😁❤️
Hi there Evie!!
you pair are so soothing to listen to, thank you for sharing your grandpas sketchbook!
This is one of the coolest videos I've seen in a really long time. Thank you for sharing such a treasured item. I wish I had this type of stuff from my ancestors.
YESSSSSS! I wanted to see this for so long! So glad you found it and posted this video, I love you guyssss! Okay...time to watch! 😻😻
Thank you so much for coming to check it out, Toni!
Notification squad!!! I'm really really excited to see this Sketchbook, I've been thinking about it ever since you mentioned it!!
Thank you to everyone that has hit that bell for us! We love you guys!!
I am so impressed by your grandfather's ink sketches. What a precious thing to leave to you. I love arches!
That's a precious item to have. I bet he would be chuffed to bits so many people are enjoying it thanks to you!
What an amazing thing to have, thank you for sharing it with us!
And thank you so much for watching!
We really appreciate it! :D
I Can write neatly if I write slowly? But not that neatly lmao
Usually I write pretty quickly though so it's pretty squished and messy
Yeah at my school the teacher says write quick and neat (because we need to go quick coz we might be busy) and im like "if you want neat i write slow and if i write quick you *dont* get neat handwriting"
This is a really lovely video, and a very special connection to your grandad. Thanks for letting us in on your family memories
Thank you so kuch for sharing this! So beautiful! And neat to see how art has passed down in the family❤
Wow his art was beautiful and amazing
We're so glad you think so too!!
Oh my god I've been waiting for this 😍😍😍
THE WAIT IS FINALLY OVER
What a treasure to have something that old and to have something that was so personal from a grandparent..better than any other material gift a person could have.
That was lovely! Thank you so much for sharing that with us. It gives me hope that our artworks can outlast us and still leave an impression on people even when we are gone.
I found the best way to improve my handwriting is keeping everything the same height and width 😊💛
This is so cool that you still have this!!! I love it!!!!
I love that kind of gifts! It has way more value than an ordinary one 💓
This was amazing! I love seeing things like this that have so much personality, and hearing about the owner was fascinating. Amazing how creativity and talent can run in families!
This video just gave me an existential crisis of all of my sketchbooks from age 10 till now ,,, will i still love art?? What the heck will happen to my sketchbook in 75+ years too??!
Sketchbooks*
Your grandfather was literally the "I'm 13 and I just drew this *Mona Lisa photo* not to good but I'm practicing"
That was really awesome. Thanks for sharing something so special with us!
What an incredible piece of your grandfather to be able to look back on! Thank you for sharing - both the sketches and your stories were fascinating!!
OMG I was waiting for this video ever since your guys mentioned it like a year ago!
Apple Kittem Same!
We're so happy to be able to finally share this with you guys!!

Nah sleep can wait
We appreciate ya stopping by!!
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful art piece!
What a wonderful treasure! Thank you for sharing! 😊
You guys should do redraws of Steph's grandad's art, I think it would be really cool to see your art styles with his
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for watching!!
This sketch book is so cool!! It's a blast from the past and epic to see that this has kept for 75+years
What an amazing sketchbook! Thank you for sharing it with us!
This is really beautiful and special
when using writing dip pens, my handwritings very fluent.
Anything else it looks like chickens ran cross the page-
same😂😂😂😋
What a wonderful & precious heirloom for you & your family!!!
This is so amazing! I want to see more from all of your grandparents!
Thanks for sharing. He was really good at drawing ☺☺☺☺
I love you guys so much you are so inspiring ❤️❤️❤️❤️ keep drawing you’re amazing
Thank you so much for the wonderful comment Abby!
Doodle Date omg I’m so happy you guys replied you are amazing and have wonderful talent and I hope you never stop TH-cam cause I look forward to you every time you post
It looks like a school project to me. We used to be set projects for the summer holidays; on a subject of our choice which would have to include pictures & text...aah takes me back.
So lovely for you to have to remember him by 💕
Wow. I'm totally excited. I am studying archaeology and history and love architecture of old buildings. I would love to hear what he had written.
Thank you so much for showing us.
On the bottom of the cover it says “ H.Evans “
(Assuming it’s his last and first name)
But I thought it said “ He Yans “
.....
You had one cool granddad
This is soooooooo cool! I'm so glad you got this book back and can share it with us ♥♥♥
Its just like just. Wow... Just wow... Really nice and just so pretty.
Hello!!!!!!!!
Llama Hugger I keep seeing your comments XD
Llama Hugger , hi...
Hiiiiii!!!!!!
Does anybody else absolutely love Llamas?
Goodmorning everyone!!! Have a nice day
Right back at ya!!
This is honestly one of the coolest sketchbooks I've ever seen! I have a couple of my grandmother's paintings, It's so cool to see how similar our styles are!
Yay! I was hoping you'd upload this! Everything is so nice looking. Your grandad was so talented.
I have India ink as well. I need to buy something to use it though. This sketch book is so interesting. Also my handwriting is alright. I have a great signature though. Also nobody in my family really draws but I do. My uncle used to. And my one cousin does. I'm tempted to make a video about how I drew as a kid then how I draw now. The comparison is huge.
It so cool
We're so happy you think so too!!
Doodle Date keep the good work
That architecture details, that ink work, what a gif from ur grandpa, keep it as a treasure, i surely pay for an ancient book like that
Guys, this is so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
And thank you so much for watching Ana!!
I always put how I write (abc) in the front of my notebooks for some reason. Also my writing is pretty neat?
John Ridd is a character from a 1922 movie named "Laura Doone". She's aristocratic and he's a farm boy that she befriends. I hope you guys see this.
Doodle Stuff it’s actually from a book, Lorna Doone: A Romance of Exmoor which was published in 1869.
I loved this so much!! My grandfather was really into calligraphy and drawing and my great aunt was a painter so this actually kind of hits close to home.
That book must smell amazing! *loves old and new book smells* Your grandad had the most amazing eye footer architecture! What a treasure!
