Hi there!
I think we all are familiar with art blocks and feeling uninspired by basically everything.
Here are some cool ideas that can hopefully get those creative juices flowing again. It's also a good video for if you just want to try something new, or need more ideas for your sketchbook.
It's a bit similar to my doodle compilations so if you enjoyed those I think you will like this tiktok compilation too.
Anyway, let me know in the comments what you think and what you would like to see more of!

Have a great day xx

i think sketchbooks are not only for drawing and practising, sometimes i just look my old sb's and laugh cry sometimes lol- they are literally memory book

Reminder to everyone!
Your art is for you. Don’t be scared of what people will think. Just make art you like. Your art is good enough. Don’t feel like you owe anyone anything. Don’t put yourself in a box you don’t like. You’re you. And your art is made by you.
That makes it special <3

i have an idea start a new sketchbook draw something anything of your choice when you start a new sketchbook draw the same drawing and see how much you have improved

(I am so glad I Could help you all)

[gojosatorusproperty_aria]

I have an idea too, so if you’re on the *LAST* page, look back at your first page go back to the last, redraw it and see your improvement!! I did this in my last sketchbook :).
Edit : dannnng 159 likes holy-
Edit 2: SO MANY LIKES WOW! TYSM THIS MAY BE MY MOST POPULAR COMMENT- Anyways- I’ll think of more art tips for you guys- I have one! When drawing if drawing literally anything, I suggest looking up a reference and drawing out the shapes you see then get into a more focused sketch, then line with pencil and finish with some shading (use reference for shading, highlights etc). Unless your fancy and use watercolor or markers, crayons etc lol.
Edit THREEE: my gosh am I surprised! Thanks guys, one more thing, if you don’t already somewhere in you sketchbook maybe write down the day you started then when you end, you can see your improvement through however long you owned the sketchbook!
Hey! I’d like to thank everybody for the likes and all of the kind reply’s! You all are so nice and I’m really glad that so many of you agreed. Hope everybody can enjoy their day and if they aren’t so far, hope your day gets bettter!

I have had such bad art block the past few days and this has given me so many ideas! :D

[peggyilia]

Every time I try to draw something creative it just turns out so bad but I still keep it because one day I will look at it and realize I really improved at art.
I only draw with pencils because it's very easy to blend and it helps me a lot. (I'm a newb btw. I started drawing like 4 months ago.)

Despite me not liking TikTok that much, I love the art content since they’re actually really inspiring and they motivate me to try more with my new sketchbook. Thanks for uploading this 😊

Remember: You can do anything you put your mind to! Don't worry about what other people will think of your drawings or paintings, art is supposed to be fun and creative, so make whatever you like! 😄

[wolfie-skyestudios]

If your scared of using a sketchbook you can use loose sheets of paper or whatever material you want and then use the sketchbook as a binder for the pieces of art you make (this is what I like doing)

[__ok.]

5:26 whoever made that, thank you. I got mine as a gift for my birthday and I only used one page, I’m trying to expand on my art skills a little more because of you <3 thank you

[artdaze]

I bought a new sketchbook but I felt this immense amount of pressure to the point I've been letting it sit on my desk for two months. I came across this video and felt huge a weight off my chest. Thank you for this! Wishing you all the best ☺️❤️

[anonymouspanda]

the first one is super helpful :D

edit: ty for all the holiday wishes…I don’t even celebrate Christmas xD but they made me happy <3
edit 2: today I had a bad anxiety attack and I’ve noticed my anxiety hasn’t been this bad for 2 years and when I’m overwhelmed with this feeling I enjoy art but feel like I’m not good enough of an artist and everything that I create is messy and terrible like me so when I feel like this I watch art TikTok’s but all of them make me realize how untalented I am but rewatching this compilation reminded me not everything has to be perfect now and I need to stop being so hard on myself…I’m a deep thinker and I think there is a hidden meaning in everything so I wanna make messy art to like set myself free lol

Something I like to do is listen to music while drawing and i sometimes draw how the song feels to me. Like the vibe of the song I'll just draw little sketches of it or the title and then draw things around the title. It fills my sketchbook pretty fast and sometimes makes a cool collage.

[illlovedd]

As somebody with a bulky sketchbook
I think the ideas for filling up your sketchbook are amazing.
Also, daily reminder
Your sketchbook is yours. Personalize it however you want. Don’t be afraid to draw what you feel. Nobody has to know. If you think somebody’s gonna find it and judge you, hide it somewhere that you think it’ll be safe.
Have a good day/night/afternoon 😊

A tip is to make sketches and then take bright markers or highlighters and doodle around it. Don’t be intimidated, just doodle stars, little sparkles, plants, even just lines. It’s super fun and makes sketchbooks really beefy since- the ink.
Another tip is to bring sticky notes and notecards to class to draw on when I can, they usually turn out great because I’m at a table instead of the floor lmao. I also tend to draw better at school for some reason. Then I cut out those drawings and tape them into my sketchbook.

Whenever I try to sketch in a fresh page, i always chase perfection and draw from other people's perspective and this puts a limit to creativity. After watching this compilation i was so happy, you people are soooo creative. Art is meant to express one's individuality. I won't chase perfection, I'll just go with the flow and sketch/draw/paint whatever the hell i want and expand my imaginative mind. Thanks to all the people in this video. This has motivated me to draw again ❤❤❤

Art feels like home, art is love, art is grounding— art is endless. Art brings me so much happiness and stimuli. When I see others create and bring their visions to life, not only does it make life more beautiful— it feels like chosen family. 🎨💖

The idea at 1:09 is so good! I love the colorful carving things as a kid. Now, I just gotta find black paint like that 🌈
All the art block tips were great!

[MANGLORIOUS]

I really love the ones where it’s just messy, it feels so freeing and wild! I like the idea that you don’t have to make everything neat and pretty and can just go crazy
