sketchbook - post 353

Here's an interesting fact. I don't use a sketchbook. Oh I have them, but I don't draw in them. For some reason I just can't bring myself to draw in an actual sketchbook. I feel pressure to draw awesome doodles and such in them. Why? I guess because most people love to see sketchbooks, or they catch you drawing in yours, and so they want to see what you have in them, and for what ever reason I feel like a tard if I have bad art in them. I know, I know... that's what they're for. But you know what's even stranger? I draw in my notebook all the time. The one I take to meetings. It has my game design notes and is all lined paper but I love to draw in them.
Strange eh?
Oh, I did make it through one sketch book, and I do think it's full of great sketches. Now that I think of it. It has the Ubisoft logo on each page (I got it when I used to work in the Ubi building in Montreal). Maybe I just can't draw on a page unless it has something on it already like a logo or lines. Hmmm...
Do you have a sketchbook and do you use it often?

I usually feel the same way whenever I'm starting a new sketchbook, you just gotta work your past it.
And yes, I use my sketchbook all the time, I'll never get any better if I don't keep practicing, right.
It's easier to start working on something that isn't perfect, with the potential to degrade it in the back of your mind, since it was already flawed to begin with.
Well, that's my uneducated pseudo-psychiatric analysis (i.e. probably nonsense).
