Hey guys! It's Lolly Bee and today I'm doing something a little bit different!
So instead of the OC redraw I decided to do a video about New Year's resolutions and one of them is
that I have always wanted to
do a sketchbook...
And I'm terrified of it [laughter]
So I decided this year I'm gonna do it. I bought a sketchbook (and It's just like a normal sketchbook from Walmart)
I bought a sketchbook and I am going to paint it.
So I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do, and I kind of wanted to play on this like really cool black
background I've never worked with black canvases before so I kind of wanted to play on that
and this is what I sketched out and finally decided to go with.
I actually, I play a little ukulele and if you haven't noticed I've done a new intro and there will be a new outro and things
like that
Because, it's just like, "okay, It's 2019. I need to step up my game." [laughter]
So, yeah, I play a little bit of ukulele and I played my ukulele for the intro
so I decided I kind of wanted to put that on my notebook since this is a new year's resolution and
learning more songs on the ukulele is a New Years
Resolution. So yeah, I decided that's what I wanted to go with!
Okay, so I think what I'm gonna try to do is I have a white
charcoal...white chalk pencil, and I'm going to try to use that to
sketch onto this and I'm not really sure how it's gonna work. Well, there's like such a bright white
glare on this and I'm having a little bit of a hard time seeing anything I'm doing
so I hope you guys can see it. I'm not used to
videoing myself doing traditional
art as you can probably tell.
Or doing it like this when I'm talking normally on my videos. I just
voiceover what I want to say. [laughter]
I kind of wanted the notebook to have this
whimsical feel. I recently...
Matthew Parker, if any of you guys
listen to him, he recently put out a new album and one of my favorite songs is called...
I think it's called is it called Alice? I don't know but it's just basically about
imagination and
one of the, one of the lines is "welcome to my world world inside my head"
and...
"It's not an ordinary place". And so I kind of wanted to play on that a little bit since I really really liked that song. [laughter]
Yeah, I don't know it doesn't...
Where's the life?
Yeah, I don't feel the life. I'm not feeling the life...OH
I might have problems here. That's not cool. It's leaving marks...oh...
This video might be a bust! [laughter]
I don't like how it's looking!
But yeah, now it's not even showing up
So, yeah, it's not looking so hot.
But I think what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and try to paint over it
even though there's this weird streaky thing and I don't know...the pencil
once I...once I erased the pencil doesn't want to go over that anymore.
But I think, like, if I can get the colors down I can see where I want to put the details.
So I think what I'm gonna do is I just kind of want some like pretty
cloudiness
around
My me. [laughter]
Just kind of whimsical
and the world inside my head. Music is just, it always kind of
transports me to this
other place
where I can be creative and have
lots of inspiration.
I kind of don't go very long without listening to music for at least one day. [laughter]
Okay, one of my new year's resolutions is to get better at
proportions. I'm not the worst, but I'm not the best either and I would like to be. [laughter]
Hey guys! This is Lolly from the future!
I just kinda wanted to butt in and say that one of my biggest New Year's resolutions that I forgot to talk about is
I write a lot as well as draw and one of my resolutions is to
actually publish something this year!
I have the first five chapters of what I want to publish uploaded to my Wattpad account and you can get to that with through
the link in
my descriptions
so, yeah! And actually I had a couple of people tell me that they, believe or not, really enjoyed it [laughter] and so I'm
contemplating uploading possibly a few more chapters. I don't know yet.
So if I get maybe a couple more people who are just, "like hey, please upload a couple more chapters," then I might do that.
So anyway, back to Lolly from the past. [laughter]
I am loving this paint. Ahhhh!
I just look at that color. Whoo! If nothing else at least I made some pretty clouds [laughter]
It's not drying very vibrant though. Why?! I'm kind of worried about when I
go in for
my character
Because I cannot see her anymore. I can't, well, it's me. I can't see me anymore.
*GASP* That's scary!
On a scale of one to ten how fantastical are you feeling about this....
A zero.
Okay, I should just
stop messing with it. Walk away, walk away! All right, so I think I'm gonna start blocking out my character, so
I'll make the skin tone first...
Yeah, I guess the lighting is just not the best that I chose
for this because
It looks really white on the camera and it's not
Yeah, I am foreseeing multiple multiple coats going into this...
here.
Well, I'm going to move on from the skintone since it's...
It's not going on quite even. That's definitely gonna need more coats. Ooo, I could use this purple for my shirt...
Decisions.
Okay, I'm going for it. It will tie in the background. Wow!
I don't really know what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting for it to all go on like this!
like so...
Texture-y.
At this point like I'm not caring. This is going so badly [laughter]. Well, I don't know that it's going badly...
Just not like how I thought. I mean, it's just turning out messy. So why not embrace it? Embrace the messy!
But, boy, will I never do this again!
Like, I feel like I have no control! It's just so slickity! Okay, so multiple layers that's, that's working
I think that'll,
that'll work and
Yeah, it's definitely it's gonna look a little like...
I don't know. It's gonna look different. It's not gonna look like what I thought but that's okay
because that happens to me all the time [laughter]
okay, so I think I'm going to
Well, maybe I'll just do this. While I have the paint
just right here.
Alright, I'm going to do these pants.
Um yeah, I'm not at my desk at the moment, I'm at my sister's desk so I'm really hoping that I don't
make a mess.
'Cause that's what I do. I make messes
*knock* Hello?
(Sister): Are you recording?
(Me): Yes.
(Sister): Oh, are you recording right now?
(Me): Yeah! You're in the video!
*Withdrawn silence* (Me): Well, what do you need? (Sister): It's recording?
(Me): Yeah!
(Sister): Anyway, thanks. (Me): You're welcome! (Sister): Hi to future peeps!
Hmmm...
Yeah, I just I have no control over what's going on here.
So maybe that's the lesson that I need to learn. Let go.
I think next time if I do another painting on a
sketchbook I'm just gonna do it white because it's changing all these colors. I'm trying hard not to hate it at this moment
I'm hoping that it'll just surprise me in the end of it. Like "oh, I'm gorgeous!" But at this moment, I'm just
passionately hating it.
I don't think I've ever wanted to give up so much on a drawing before.
I've invested though. Now I'm gonna make a stupid video if it kills me [laughter]
The sad part about that, I mean this, is
that if I don't like it I'm
doomed to face it for how many pages of
paper I have in this thing.
THAT is scary.
*Knock* (Me:) Come in! (Sister): Oh, that's really cool!
(Me): I HATE it!
It looks awful! (Sister): Are you kidding? It looks so good!
(Me): Really?! (Sister): Yeah! (Me): I am hating it! I hate it!
(Me:) You can talk. It's fine you, can talk. Oh, you're eating? It's never stopped you before. OUCH!!! [laughter]
I don't know, I probably, I won't maybe put this in the video. I might not. But I might put it in just to embarrass you. [laughter]
(Sister): It won't embarrass me. (Me): And then we could argue about it in the comments [laughter]
(Sister): That'd be one long typed out argument. I think it looks good.
(Me): Well, I don't. Shocker. (Sister): Too bad. Does that mean you're not gonna post it?
(Me): No, I put too much work in this stupid video! It's going up [laughter]
(Sister): Oh, that's the cover of a notebook? (Me): Of a sketchbook, yeah, this is one of my New Years resolutions.
(Sister): You're gonna do one notebook every day for the rest of your life? (Me): No, that would be dumb! [laughter]
I would never ever survive. I just,
I have no control, so I feel like, okay, messy. We can go with messy. It's gonna be messy!!!
And I'm totally not upset about it! (Sister): Yeah.
(Me): Well, thank you for
helping me. I run on hope fuel [laughter]
Oh my goodness!
The hate is real. I don't, why? Why is it not just staying on?
I feel like it's... like it's fading. Why are you fading?!
Well, I've just, I just gotta finish it
I've just gotta finish it!
I honestly feel like an utter moron just sitting in a dark room with one light... talking to myself
Okay. Walk away, walk away.
And also I just haven't painted in a little while. I don't know
how long exactly, but I haven't painted in a little while, so...
When you don't do something for a little while, it's a little harder.
But for it to be a little harder and then to have this weird slick surface
that's changing the color of all the other...
colors?!
Yeah, I'm having a difficult time.
So, I'm coming towards the end here. There's just only so much I can do honestly.
Yeah, this is not one of my best days guys. I can paint better than this!
I don't know what to say at this point. I'm so disappointed in myself [laughter]
All right, I think I just need to start
backing away from this. I mean it's not awful.
It's just not my favorite.
Maybe I'll grow to like it...
but that face...that smile...that went bad.
I don't like you. I don't like you!
Go away. Be gone!
Okay, that's better.
Oh, wow! That looks so distorted on the camera! I'm sorry guys! [laughter]
I mean I didn't realize 'till now.
This is what it actually looks like.
So...
Yeah, it doesn't look like that real life, it looks a little different. But anyway,
so...and I think once it dries, I'm going to ModPodge it and put...
You know, "sketchbook number one" or something. So I
don't think I'll carry you guys along for the boring ModPodge process.
Okay
So it dried, I waited overnight for it to dry 'cuz you know, ModPodge, there's just no telling. It needs to be dry!
And overnight, when I woke up, you know, I looked at it again and
I am not half as disappointed with it
as I was. And what I'm going to do is I'm actually going to paint over the things that I didn't like
And while I'm at it, I'm going to
talk about the actual New Year's resolutions that I didn't talk about when I was painting earlier.
I want to make improvements to my channel in 2019,
but I don't really know what kinds
So any suggestions would really be greatly appreciated!
But I basically wanted to make it just a little more interactive and I know I kind of...
You know, I've always made myself available for questions, and I'm just, yeah, I'm always available for questions.
And I don't make tutorial videos outside of what anybody
eants to know pretty much. So if you want to know something, tell me definitely!
Also, if you like these types of traditional videos and think I should do more of them
tell me in the comments!
I'm not used to doing this kind of video as you can tell,
but I have thoroughly enjoyed it and I hope you have as well!
You know, I had so many things I was going to say, I was planning it out all day.
But I guess that's what I get for not writing anything down.
Because I never remember anything as some of you probably already know 'cuz I say it a lot. I never remember anything.
Oh! One of the other things I was gonna say (YAY, I remembered [laughter]) was that
I would like to know what kind of videos you guys enjoy the most!
Yeah, I don't know why I was so unhappy with this last night
'Cuz I'm liking it a lot more now.
Okay. Well, I think I am finally satisfied
with that and as I'm
saying that I'm getting out more paint.
What are you doing? [laughter]
Alright, so I'm just gonna do this a little bit more.
Yeah, I think I'm finally happy with this
And that means we are coming to the end of the video
Which is probably extremely long already and I won't possibly know how to cut it down
to at least 15 minutes
But I'm gonna try anyway, we'll see if I if I made it.
But like I said any suggestions, I would love to hear on what you would like to see 2019!
And I hope this really motivates me to, OH! I forgot!
I forgot!
I forgot I was gonna write something here! Hold on. I'm gonna go get a pen.
Hmmm.... What if I ruin it?! NOOOO!!!!
Ok, we'll just do this. I feel like I want to put like 2019.
Okay, so at some point, you know what?
You just have to walk away. And I think I've reached that point. I just need to walk away.
Oh, but if I put a little...Ooo...OOO, I like it!
Now I can actually see this part. Okay, now I'm done
Now I'm done. Okay. Okay, I'm done.
Okay [laughter]. I hope you enjoyed this video, um, and I hope you take the time to
tell me what you would like to see for my channel 2019, and thank you so much for watching!
I'll see you all next week! Bye!!!
You
