The Art House Sketchbook Fiction Project
My new sketchbook project has arrived from Art House. The Fiction project, a sketchbook library, is to marry artwork with fiction. It is a sister project to the previous sketchbook library project, where we did sketchbooks for addition into a library of artist sketchbooks. This project is to be an illustrated narrative. Each artist/writer is given a topic, or theme to use and develop into a work of fiction, with illustrations. The theme can be as closely or loosely followed as desired, but each sketchbook should be 51% literature.
These books are to be part of a permanent collection of sketchbooks, creating a library of them. The public will be able to come and look through them free. What a good resource for new artists and simply people interested in art and literature!

These are not really aimed at children, but they can be. Any prose or poetry is acceptable or any combination there of. But quality is what I am aiming at.
I received my sketchbook yesterday, and with it my theme: This is Where We Start.
Now, this is where I start!

I have just found this site and I like what I have read and seen so far. I have not drawn since early years in school but am going to work on learning how to draw. Thank you for your insights.
ReplyDeleteYour welcome. Drawing can be the most rewarding and frustrating of art forms! You learn to draw by drawing a lot! but it is not expensive, so buy the pencils and paper and go to town!
