If the new year also means starting a new sketchbook, here's some tips that help me:
◾Purposely draw a poorly done doodle on the first page. It'll kill that new sketchbook intimidation.
◾fancy sketchbooks are cool and all, but cheaper ones allow you to feel less guilty about "messing up".
◾You'll have pretty pages, and some "bad"/boring scrawly ones. Both aid you in your skill building, so respect both.
◾Keep a clear plastic sheet with your sketchbook to help with bleed-through.
