Sketchbooks

OMG was my first reaction to these sketchbooks and 24 hours later I am still saying OMG! These sketchbooks are done by people all over the world. If you click on a thumbnail you can view the whole book. They are truly inspiring! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE find time this weekend to take a look. Note how many artists embrace negative space and how others fill negative space. After viewing some books, reflect on the experience in your IWB.

WOW. Amazing. Mind-boggling. I agree, I could stare at those pictures for days.

Do you have PicLens? (Now its called Cooliris) It's a really cool way to view photos on the internet.

Wow, these are amazing. I love how they use everyday life to turn into works of wonder. I also like to see the different uses of negative space.

Everyday life = Art (A theme perhaps?)

Hey when you are out and about shopping look to see if what ever store you are in has Moleskin sketchbooks. Then tell me so we can get one for our Kingdom of Tonga Mama!!
