Description Still waiting for permission and payment for commissions so I can upload them, but I didn't want to not upload anything in the meantime. So here are some pages from my sketchbook so people know I'm not dead. Next week and the week after that are exams, so there won't be anything big for a while.

And yes, that is FrederikFrede's list of things to do to stay creative. It's good, you should all write that down in your sketchbooks.

Wow, this makes me want to sketch more. You've got some pretty awesome things in that sketchbook. I like reading all the bits of writing here and there.

You should! Go sketch things!

And yeah, several people have said they like the writing. I thought everybody wrote in their sketchbooks, but some people seem surprised, so I guess not X)

Guess what? I did go sketch something.

I sometimes write in my sketchbook, but it's usually boring unrelated stuff like to-do lists.

Haha, awesome! You can never have too many sketches.
Some of the stuff I wrote here is boring too, like the tiny list of commissions I still had to finish or when I expressed my concern about the new lead in my pencil X) But it's okay. It's your own sketchbook after all, not everything has to be interesting to some sort of audience.

I like that List of things to do to stay creative. It's weirdly effective. I always love sketch-dumps that have writing. I can't quite put my finger on it as to why, but I think it makes the artist appear to be more human, like you are drawing with purpose and not just throwing down random pictures and forgetting about them.

Although, there is nothing wrong with just drawing then discarding pictures.

It's a list by FrederikFrede that's been going around tumblr. I thought all of those points were good things to do, so I copied it in my sketchbook so I wouldn't forget it. It's handy!
And this is my little travel sketchbook, that I keep in my bag at all times, so the writing is what I was thinking at that time, or ideas I wrote down to remember. It's true that writing next to pictures can give a little insight in a person's life, be it by their handwriting, their thoughts or the little lists they make. I guess I just waved at you from behind this window of sketches and words ^^
