Artists use sketchbooks for a myriad of purposes—to capture a
moment, to develop an idea, to record a scene. This book advises
on how to enjoy keeping a sketchbook and how to make the most of
their use. With practical examples throughout, it is a beautiful
and valuable guide that will inspire you to pick up a pencil or
brush, mark the page, and start your own visual diary. Topics
covered include looking at different types of sketchbooks—their
size, theme, and purpose; ideas for drawing and painting in a
sketchbook inside, outside, or while traveling; and advice on
professional sketchbooks and scrapbooks.
