#tbh the thought of making a separate file for every sketch seems MUCH weirder to me than having them all in the same file

"#you don’t buy a sketchbook every time for one sketch"

UGH yes thank you lmao like, yall really keep one million separate tiny files for individual sketches???? I generally keep all of my related sketches in one file, separated by fandom, and only move something out of that file if I plan to polish it up into something more finished. I make a new sketch file probably every six months or so, sometimes sooner or later depending on how full the file gets (I do not, for example, let it get to the point where the program lags).

The thought of having a shit-ton of tiny little individual files for every sketch gives me anxiety

I think it's much more common than the people who are reacting hyperbolically think it is lol

This was the file for all my Potion Permit sketching (minus the 'shh' folder which is nsft so not shown here, but includes like half a dozen more sketches)

WAIT GENUINE QUESTION FOR ARTISTS, DO YOU GUYS NOT USE THE SAME CANVAS FOR MULTIPLE DRAWINGS???? YOU JUST MAKE A NEW ONE EVERYTIME??
