Sketchbook Project

Well. I’m back. Officially. I haven’t had a moment to do anything, let along blog or make art. But, now I’m on holidays! So I’m back dear blog. I’m back! I know I have neglected you, but I promise I’m going to treat you better from now on.

Did you miss me?

Anyway! Now that I’m back in business I’ve finally had a chance to get into my newest project.

The Sketchbook Project: 2011

That’s right! I’ve finally gotten started on my Sketchbook project Sketchbook. Today is the last day to sign up if you’re interested in participating!

Thousands of sketchbooks will be exhibited at galleries and museums as they make their way on tour across America. After the tour, all sketchbooks will enter into the permanent collection of The Brooklyn Art Library, where they will be barcoded and available for the public to view.

Anyone – from anywhere in the world – can be a part of the project. Cool huh?

Here are some pics from my sketchbook so far. The theme for mine is Boys and Girls.

Moleskine

Boring moleskine front cover, but I’m going to decorate it to make sure people pick it up and look inside!

barcode

I even get my own barcode! Fun! That’s my arthouse user url by the way if you’d like to have a look.

Ok. Now for the inside!

Page 6. This is a concept I’ve been sitting on for ages, and it’s nice to finally see her in real life. I’m going to edit this one into a nice etsy print later.

    I love Antler Girl! They look like devil horns in the close-up :P
    THE COMICS PAGE IS LOOKING FANTASTIC. And I love that you used the Sticky bags as title pages.
