I love this video so much! When my children were very small, I just could not throw away all of their funny little stick figure drawings. A friend told me I needed to let them go, but I decided I appreciated their art too and every little step mattered. I bought a container with 3 drawers (I have 3 children) and each year, their drawers would fill up with almost every piece of art they made. At the end of the year, they all went into binders and every year they take all the old ones out and laugh and celebrate at how much their art has improved. They are nearly all teenagers now and they are still collecting art. We have a lot of binders on our shelves!! I am amazed at how skilled they've become and convinced that keeping their art was one thing that spurred them on. The most fun thing about this is that I really didn't know the effect this collecting of their art would have. It's inspired me to finally go back and do art again as an adult which I gave up in college because I "didn't think I was good enough." I didn't have the mindset of practice at all. The mindset is growing which I why I have found your videos!! Thank you again for sharing!!!
Thanks for having the confidence to show us your early work. It was still better than the level I'm currently at, but watching your progress encourages me.
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
I just discovered a painting I did when I was 10 - trust me - it was worse 😉
What you see in this video is still after many years of drawing and sketching
Thank you for not being afraid to be real, we love you, well I think most of us do. The ones that don’t, do not matter. I feel that you come out side yourself more than any other TH-cam artist I’ve watched. I mean It feels kind of like a marriage between us and you. Your channel is the only one that I read others comments about you, those artists and or students like myself matter to me also, and I don’t have to walk go drive somewhere to get this. I only have to keep my phone charged 😍
That makes me SO HAPPY to hear, thank you so much! 😊🙏🏼
Your 1st sketchbook was way better than I can do at present!!!!! Drawing/sketching intimates me. I know practice, practice, practice..
😉✏️✏️
The first sketchbook was also after a lot of experience (I've been really drawing ever since I can remember myself)
I like how you approach the sketches where proportions are off - you find it amusing and don't stress over that. Sketches that are off bring me down so much, I sometimes struggle to continue in the same sketchbook. You have a really refreshing attitude, will keep in mind, next time I draw a man that has a huge head and tiny shoulders :D
😂😂 You should do that!
And of course - it's all good and fun. Finding a mistake means you develop your awareness and learn!
I love sketchbooks, they're like snapshots from the mind, and I'm really looking forward to your sketchbook tours! Thanks, Liron 🙂
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
More to come soon.
I feel the same about my sketchbooks! Moments in time
I've always told you that I love your honesty and openness about your artwork and it's progress. You are not afraid to show us how you are coming along as an artist. Keeping the books are such a good idea. I used to think that it was a waste of space to keep my old ones, but then thought, how would I know if I'm improving or chugging along in the same old rut. I always take my book and pencil case with me to the coffee shop, library or park, even though I have to take by backpack. It's such a good way to just draw and try out things without worrying too much about the outcome. Anyway, enough rambling. Just thank you for the great video, Liron. Cheers!
Exactly! It’s just so much better in every single way 😁✏️✏️
Thank you and the rambling is always welcomed!
How nice to see your sketchbooks, Lyron. I treasure mine as well. I just started a 365 day project of drawing people this year. I have always been afraid of drawing people and felt inferior as an artist because of it so I decided not to share my sketches for now but rather focus on actually doing it every day.
That's an amazing project!
Keep me updated 😊🙏🏼
Hi Liron. Love you and your videos. You have so much character.
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
My early work looks wayyy more worse haha. But thats the fun part, you get to see how far you have come and imagine how much further you can go. Thanks for sharing your sketchbooks.
Haha I’m sure I have worse work to dig up 🤣
And definitely! That’s the goal, really encouraging!
Thank you Liron. I'm so pleased to have found you. I'll be back.
So happy to have you onboard 😁🙏🏼
Liron, this is wonderful that you shared your sketchbooks. I have found that when someone sees me sketching, they want to see my entire sketchbook. Like you I enjoy watching Peter Sheeler and have learned a lot from him that I use in my SB! I always enjoy your tips and explanations. I find them very encouraging. THANKS A LOT!
Yes please! Tour of your sketchbooks! Thank you!
Promise to do one soon 😊🙏🏼
I loved seeing this. It’s encouraging that I will improve. I love my sketch books. I feel no pressure for perfectionism in them and all the freedom for experimentation. One year ago I intended to sketch or paint everyday but it’s taken me the whole year to develop the discipline to do that. Now it’s a thing that I do every day. Looking forward to 1 year from now.
That is such an amazing habit to have! Way to go 😁🏆👍🏼
I which I lived next door to you. I would be in my element looking through all of your sketch books. 🐶
It is encouraging to see your sketchbooks. I think that your earlier sketches are very good but, your sketches/paintings these days are amazing. Thank you for taking the time and making the extra effort to help us . Ann M.
Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼
Aspiring to always improve!
Thank you for sharing. It is encouraging to see the earlier stages of your skills. And watching your videos regularly is very much an inspiration to sketch and paint regularly. I no longer wait until I feel like painting, but instead try to paint daily no matter what. Your enthusiasm in each video is inspiring in a very practical way.
This is Mary from Toronto. SJ used it when she was very sick a few years ago but it is Mary. Sounds like you got into LinkedIn as we had hoped. Way to go.
😊🙏🏼
Fun to see your early work. Thank you for all that you do.
😊🙏🏼
Maybe you experienced something like this too. I don't sketch in my Sketchbook I only do full pieces because I want it to be beautiful (?) and when I sketch in it I rip the pages out and throw them away... It sounds so stupid but Im scared to do ugly or bad art and even though I don't show anyone my Sketchbook Im still nervous😆 but your video kinda helped me so I will try to stop ripping out pages it's gonna be hard for me idk why... And I love your art :)
Haha happy it helped! I will soon make a video that will help you with that too (:
Bottom line is - don't give up on any piece of art you make! It's important to push them to the "bitter" end, in order to learn 😉🎨✏️
@@LironYan thanks :) 😊
Thank you so much for sharing!! Very nice work even when you started👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'm enjoying all the content you're creating; from podcasts to Instagram and TH-cam as well. You're a hard worker and I don't know how you find time to paint!
Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼
It's actually a HUGE challenge just to carve out these several daily hours to paint!
But it gets easier slowly and the more my brand expands 🎨🎨😁😁
Thanks Liron. I enjoyed hearing your thoughts and seeing your sketches. I've never been good at sketching so I really admire your skill. I do paint in journals though and agree with what you've said. Looking at my stash I've found them to be almost like reading diaries in my choice of subjects and pigments. I can see where my head/heart was at given times. As for using them as an educational tool, they've taught me how to become almost instantly looser when getting too tight. Even in the midst of a piece when feeling tightness setting in, I still break to do a quick seascape... works every time to loosen me up and I never would have thought of it without viewing vacation seascapes in my journals. I'm not sure why doing seascapes works that way for me. Maybe its fewer forms or even that I enjoy seascape pigments so much or seeing how sky and sea ones play with each other but, as I said, it works and I'm pretty sure that without the journals it would have taken longer for the light bulb to go on if it ever did because I don't live by the sea. Edit: Happy New Year to you and yours.
That's an amazing (and helpful) thing to discover!
We all have these positive "triggers" that help us bring out our looseness and spontaneity.
I actually have a mental picture I imagine in my mind that helps me with that (it's a picture of a brush dancing on the paper very freely, and it has certain colors in it and everything).
Thank you 😊🙏🏼 Wishing you an amazing 2019!
Thank you for sharing this video. I love to see these stages of your work. They show the progress, the path you took to reach your current skills, and show a direction for me to follow as well. I have been so curious, can you make a video about your journey in this career? , which tells how long you have been painting, how you began, how you learned, how long you.... your path, art schools if you went, how old you are, those sort of things, podcast, your books, and this insta and TH-cam. ;) Would love to get to know more. ;)
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
Added to my "to-do" list - will do something like that soon!
Enjoy your work! Thanks for sharing part of your life.
😊🙏🏼
Thank s for sharing Liron! I look forward to seeing more of your sketchbooks... I am on my first sketchbook! So exciting for me. I am actually working from two books at once. I keep a smaller one in my car with a set of pencils so I can sketch something along my journeys. I have a larger one I keep at home by my chair in the living room so I can just relax and draw my surroundings or practice a technique. My daughter bought me a handmade leather bound small book that I am going to reserve for line and wash drawings of birds and flowers and that sort of thing. I enjoy your video’s so much and appreciate all your efforts and excitement to share what you’ve learned! You truly inspire me to pick up my paper, pencils and paint and actually do something! God Bless you
So happy to hear 😊🙏🏼
Keep me updated on how it goes and enjoy! 🏆
I only use sketchbooks. Just worked on an ink drawing from my head. Good practice. Thanks for the video.
😊🙏🏼
Liron, I look forward to every video you post. I learn so much from you. It was really nice to see your earlier work and to note the difference in then and now. It also makes me feel better about some of the subjects I paint in my sketchbook! Love your sister's slipper!
Haha that duckling slipper is so cute!
Happy I could help and encourage 😊🙏🏼
Hi Liron! You're one of my favourite youtubers and I just can't express how helpful it is that you take time to explain things instead of just showing timelapse of painting. And I love your sketchbook tours and painting masters series. I really hope your channel becomes more popular, I think you deserve much more love and recognition. Thank you so much!
Thank you so so much 😊🙏🏼 Your encouragements and support means a lot to me!
Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing more of your sketchbook tours and paintings in 2019
😊🙏🏼
I love your very relaxed friendly approach. I’m old and I’m a beginner. I’m looking forward to receiving two of your beginner sketching books that I ordered yesterday from Amazon.ca. I have done various art related hobbies, but always admired and wished I could just sketch what I see in front of me, particularly people. Now that I’m stuck at home, what a perfect time to try to do this. Thanks, I look forward to many more of your videos.
This was so helpful! You're right about the importance and practicality is sketchbooks. Thank you!
😊🙏🏼
Awesome dude! Love your work ethic and your out there with no fear. keep it up
Thank you 😁🎨🙏🏼
So simple and wonderful ideas... I loved your train of thought on sketching. I use to give my sketch books away i won't anymore.. So i can track my progress. Thank you and happy New Year
They are incredibly valuable, at least charge for it next time 😉😉
One day I hope I have a pile of sketchbooks like you! My big goal this year is to draw every day! Thanks for sharing Liron :)
That’s a worthy goal, hope you do amazing! 😁🙏🏼🏆
can't wait for the sketchbook tour, your art is beautiful :)
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
Yay. Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure 😊🙏🏼
Lovely thanks for sharing liron 😉👏👏 as always helpful inspiration 👍
So happy to be able to help! 😊🙏🏼
Great stuff, thanks for sharing your early work!
😊🙏🏼
Thanks Liron
You got it!
I enjoyed your showing the older sketches! Actually there is a funny thing that I wanna share 3 years ago by chance I came across your video in which you were showing how to draw lines by putting dots and so and that got me interested in trying to teach myself to paint& draw, over these 3 years I noticed how much your style and skills kept changing and improving! You inspire me by your hard work and your choice of wide variety of subjects on your channel ^^ keep the great work! By the way check Bobby Chiu channel and his schoolism.com website if you haven’t already done, they have lots of interesting artists over there and lots to learn from ;)
Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 Yes - always learning and moving forward
And will definitely check it out!
Thank you for the great tips, they are very helpful! 👍
Happy to help 😊🙏🏼
I love sketchbooks, but to be honest, I have more trouble creating final and full pieces. I'm trying to do more this year.
It's always a challenge to do the thing you're not used to.
If you do too many large and developed pieces, it gets harder to do simplified sketches as well.
But I know exactly what you mean. It's almost as if there is "too much" space to fill 😂
Quick tip - **slowly and gradually** increase the size you work it. It helps.
experience is the best teacher who can guide us.we can learn from our mistakes.>_< wowo
Indeed (:
🤗 good sir
Liron, how do you get the courage to begin sketching outside? What do you say when people come up to you and watch? That would make me VERY nervous!
Haha, I get it (:
All I can say is that the fear goes away REALLY fast.
Check this video out: th-cam.com/video/iYrIQAltfwQ/w-d-xo.html
And as a side note - I enjoy the attention - but you don't have to!
You can paint in a more "reserved" way, smaller size, in less crowded places, with headphones on etc (:
Am I just the odd woman out? 😂 Though I love sketchbook tour videos, I'm just not a fan of sketchbooks 🤷♀️ maybe it's the pulp paper ones I have..... I may have to invest in a cotton one
yeah, cotton is great. it's so so much easier to paint on, you can do nice soft edges and lifting out and all sorts of things.
Pulp is a bit annoying indeed, but for pen and pencil it's perfectly fine 😉
sir please learn to us the painting style of great Masters sir Joseph Z
I can only teach my own style 😉🎨
I enjoyed your video very much. I hope to be as good as you some day.
Me: look at these beautiful sketches
Him: as you can see these ones are very off
Me: okay
