I had some trouble getting going and came this close to giving up and not doing it again. I was getting all caught up on worrying about making it "good enough". Finally with the deadline looming, I decided to throw caution to the wind and just start drawing, something, ANYTHING! I did the above drawing quickly. Just a quick sketch of me trying on different glasses. The theme I was given for my journal was "in 10 minutes". I went with that and made each page in 10 minutes. FAST with no regrets.
You know what? I finished it. Is it my best work? Heck no! But that's okay. It was very freeing and I learned a few things along they way. Now I can look forward to the show when it comes to Toronto this summer. YAY!!! I wanted to show you guys the whole journal as if you were flipping through it, so I made a video:
Thanks for joining me today!

Oh, I just LOVE this!
Things can happen when you only have minutes to complete. I think I´ll make my own quick journal.
Thank you!!
Glad to see you finished your sketchbook Tascha!
I finished mine with bare minutes left and I managed to get it off just in time.
It's funny, I also did a circle cut-out on the front page, hehe.
Love your little paintings!
What a great idea! Your sketchbook came out great; it's really cute.
Hi Tascha, :-)
I just discovered your artwork via Etsy and I absolutely love it. I'm actually amazed I never saw your work before... ah, so many talented people on the web. :-) I'm also a canadian illustrator so I thought I would just give you a little hello and I will make sure to check out your blog more often.
Keep up the great work! :-) Love, love, love it! (And I laughed so much at that video with about the juice extractor... if I get one, one day, I will remember to put that garbage near, eheh!)
I love that project.
The pictures are super cute, especially the one on the sofa.
love it...wish I could see the journals in person!!!
xo, suzi
