A Slow Sketchbook Session ✏️ Drawing Warm-Ups

In today's sketchbook session, I'm revisiting a few simple drawing warm-ups from The Dynamic Bible by Peter Han, a book that was introduced to me by my husband. This isn’t a tutorial—just a quiet sketch-with-me practice focused on lines, curves, cubes, circles, and ellipses. I return to these exercises to slow down, loosen my hand, and ease into a creative mindset. Lately, I've been thinking about the Japanese concept of Yutori (ゆとり)—creating space and margin for yourself rather than rushing from one thing to the next. This sketchbook practice feels like a small expression of that idea: a few moments spent making simple marks on a page without worrying about perfection or results. Just pen to paper, repetition, and enjoying the process. If you enjoy sketchbook practice, drawing exercises, art journaling, and slow creative moments, I hope you'll enjoy spending a few minutes sketching with me. ···················· TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro 00:06 Reference Book Flip Through Featuring The Dynamic Bible by Peter Han 01:00 Line Variations 07:21 Line Weight 13:38 Circles 17:02 Circles & Ellipses 26:26 Ellipses Drawn in Plane 29:55 Thank you for watching ···················· Tip: For the best viewing experience, watch in the highest available quality ⚙️ #SketchbookPractice #SketchWithMe #DrawingWarmups #SketchbookSession #DrawingPractice #LineDrawing #PenDrawing #ArtProcess #CreativeProcess #SlowLiving #Yutori #LofiArt #LofiDrawing #LofiSketchbook #peterhanstyle ···················· Reference: The Dynamic Bible by Peter Han https://superanius.com/products/peter...
