In this solo vlog, Jason Nicholas reflects on the value of embracing imperfection—what he calls "wonky"—and how it adds whimsical character to both architecture and personal expression. He argues that sketching is more than a hobby for him; it is a passion that can be practiced anytime, anywhere, provided you have the right tools. By celebrating the imperfect and the spontaneous, he encourages viewers to see sketching as a liberating, everyday activity that nurtures creativity.

And for me, wonky means, uh, whimsical. It means imperfect. Kind of like, kind of like me. Kind of like all of us, right? None of us are perfect. We're all a little bit wonky. So our buildings— buildings can have a lot of character. Feels so weird to be out here on a Sunday afternoon, but it's fun. Sketching could happen anytime, any place. Anywhere if you have this stuff. One of the things I love about this, um, I was going to call it a hobby, but for me sketching is really more than a hobby. It's almost a passion. It's something— it is probably a passion. It's something I just love, love, love doing.
