I typically use my sketchbook to just draw things that either inspire me or straight up from imagination. I prefer to draw character’s and I typically draw others in their own universe. I’ve been drawing since I was a kid, and as I got older, my drawings have improved drastically. moving forward, I want to use my sketchbook to experiment with inking and experimentation. For me, experimenting with different techniques, it helps show me other ways in which I can showcase my art. constantly improving on my own work and by trying different things helps widen my skillset.

Answer the following questions?
Do you currently have any pets? Did you have any during your childhood? Do you have any memories that stick out about these pets? What does your pet mean to you?
Think about how would you like to capture a pet in a pet portrait.
FYI: Next week you will make three pet portraits in your sketchbook. For now, I want you to find a pet or make plans for what pet you will draw. Is it your pet, a neighbor’s pet, a friend, or a family pet? Perhaps, you can draw someone’s pet is the class. If you can’t get a pet to draw talk to me. You can also draw pets at the park dog run, any pets outside at the park, go to an animal shelter, etc.

Question: How do you typically use your sketchbook? What do you prefer to draw? What do you want to use your sketchbook for moving forward? Color studies? Inking? Technical drawings? Life drawing? Experimentation?
I don’t usually use a textbook because I prefer digital tablets like my ipad and apple pencil. With a tablet there’s more variety and it doesn’t feel as if you’re trapped in a box. I prefer to draw different ideas that will always pop up in my head but I mostly end up doing things with scenery. In the future with the sketchbooks I have, I’d probably use it for experimenting or just regular sketching with ideas whenever i don’t have my tablet.
