The Sketchbook Project

Apparently this is my third sketchbook from the Sketchbook Project and it will be the only one I've managed to send back (assuming I don't forget to take it to the post office tomorrow...). The first one I don't even remember at all and have no idea where it might be. The second I have and it's got about three pages filled. This one I dismantled and reflled with some slightly better paper and a few pages of watercolour paper, and I have at least filled most of it.

And here it is in all it's messy glory...



2020 page 1-2


Including blanks (sigh)
2020 page 3-4
An attempt at paper cutting
2020 page 9-10
Inspired by alby_mangroves (who is awesome)
2020 double bald woman page 1
Playing with my gouache set and liked the result
2020 page 5 gouache
random doodling in pen and ink
2020 page 5-6
more random ink doodling and sea creature in coloured pencils
2020 pg 7-8
Trying stuff with ink and then watercolour that didn't really work
2020 pg 15-16
Something I actually like! Even though it was completely out of my head, no references and no idea where it was going
2020 pg 21-22
Followed by something I really DON'T like
2020 pg 23-24
two completely unrelated pages next to each other - the bird is in ball point pen, the seascape is gouache
2020 pg 25-26
This page was coloured inks with black ink over the top.
2020 sunset silhouettes ink posca watercolour
Another two page spread of unrelated art - a piece I did just playing with watercolour and ink doodling, and a fuzy watercolour panda.
2020 pg 27-28

I LOVE THIS, I LOVE THIS. Your ink doodling is INSPIRED and I am in love with it. <33333 Beautiful stuff on all pages and with all mediums. I think I especially love the moose and squirrel, and the demon-thing, which is GORGEOUS.

A sister of mine bought me a Sketchbook Project sketchbook for Christmas at my request. I was thinking about filling it with writings and observations paired with doodles and/or some other sorts of art, but with 2020 being 2020 (and me being me), I virtually forgot about it. :( Maybe I'll still fill it up!

Oh you should do it! You can send them back at any time - the deadline is only for their physical tour, and I don't even know if they are having those this year. You could even do a Covid diary...

And thank you for your lovely comment! I got excited about your sketchbook and forgot to say it.. LOL
