Sketchbook Tour! Goldline Art Journal

Hi all! Today I'm showing you the first half of my watercolour sketchbook! I feel like you can really see the progression with this one as I gained my confidence with watercolours and started combining journaling a bit more - I really love this one! Hope you enjoy watching 😊 Katie x

Hi all! Just wanted to share that I’m doing a painting livestream next Saturday at 2pm BST for everyone to join! It will be here on YouTube, via the ‘Live’ tab with a replay available after. I’ll pop a community post up in the next couple of days too. Hope to see you there! 🤗💛

"Sketchbook practice." I need to keep reminding myself of that phrase. Practice... Yes. Thank you for sharing.

[EmmaDurrans]

So many beautiful paintings. I love the spread near the end where you combined your journaling on the page 😊

[miiaproductions]

So many beautiful pages, your sketchbook tours are always super inspiring to watch 😄🩷 I definitely need to get a watercolour sketchbook to practice in 😊

I really like hearing your thoughts on using different sketchbooks with wet media.

The first page layout is inspiring with the logo and writing - lovely relaxing landscape too

Tracing paper works well to slip between pages to help with smudging, it’s thinner and so less bulk

Lovely warm desert painting and the Christmas card designs are cute and I stently made me feel chilly 🥶 so I grabbed my cardigan 😅

Cool collage effect with blackbird 🐦‍⬛


Oooow I like this idea waxwing and Robin pages

Yes I like the lines and wonderful to use eyeliner! 😅 cool idea I must try too.

Warm beach painting, lovely clear sea 🌊

Tulips, coffee and a baked goodness ✅ I like the swatches you add, I keep forgetting to do this.

Pegs! Awesome idea I like this idea because they are at different angles and positions


Lovely art supplies arrangement:-)

That’s a lovely bouquet of flowers 💐

The tins and pasta packet look so realistic :-)

You paint lovely landscapes - I try to add the smaller distance details buts do difficult, you achieve it brilliantly.

Yes I like this diary layout spread - my daily journal I gave up with last year as the style bored me but your style I think because the sketchbook is larger makes it more interesting for me.

Oh the mountain Goat 🐐

😍 fab half a sketchbook creation video 👍

your sketchbooks always have so much variety, they're amazing!! 🥰

[thompson_jules]

I love your sketchbook spreads Katie, they are always so varied and vibrant and although I have never journaled, I really love those pages😍 I bought the Goldline art journal after your recommendation and have really enjoyed using it. Mind you I haven’t been able to create very much in the past few months due to lots of life stuff getting in the way but your videos and Patreon uploads are definitely keeping me inspired and sane, so as always thank you for sharing🙏🏼

Thank you Katie. You’ve made me want to get out my kuretake paints out again. I love journally pages too.

Loved going through this beautiful sketchbook with you Katie! My favorite page is that Mountain Goat! Lol! Now I’m going to try to find it on your YouTube!
PS: Don’t think I didn’t notice those fish tins!!🥰

[Lunangel]

Oooh I adore them all! Specially the tulips and the Mother's day spread. Too gorgeous! As always you're so inspirational and I love you and admire your art so much! 💖✨️

[JulieToye-gyij]

My favourite is the bouquet of flowers you did, the last spread. But I love the rest, too! 💖🤗💖

[thejournalingbroom]

You have no idea how proud of myself I am for recognizing that it was a hobonichi cover before you mentioned it was a hobonichi cover you drew 🤣 beautiful sketchbook!!

[lindasartcorner]

Beautiful sketches ❤ I’m happy to find out you combine journaling and sketching. I’ve recently started to do that myself but I’m a bit terrified of sharing them online.
