For an artist AND designer, the sketchbook is EVERYTHING.
You should be carrying one around and sketching and writing down ideas all the time! Put down your phone and get out your sketchbook! Style is up to you – small/large, gridded/empty/lined, doesn’t matter.. just do it.
PARTICIPATE IN SKETCHBOOK SHOWCASE “All Things Ink”
Our job as artists is to be observers of the world. Observe and improve. Make things better, more functional, more beautiful. Tell stories in a more interesting way.
