The folks at Art House Co-op in Brooklyn, NY are seeking artists to join in on the next Sketchbook Project. This is number six to my knowledge. I've submitted to all of them so far. The first one was themed "Fears", the second was "How to Save the World", the third was "Everyone We Know". These first ones were all done in the pocket sized cahiermoleskine plain journals (very thin paper). The forth Sketchbook Project was the first to go into permanent record/possession of the library in Brooklyn. This project also was the first to increase the size of the "book" to the 5"X8.25" moleskinecahier size plain journal (same thin paper). The theme for this, and all the projects since, is a pick one from the list. I chose "Friends of Friends of Friends". The next (fifth) Sketchbook Project I chose the theme of "Nightmares", This project is still on tour check on their website http://arthousecoop.com/ to get all the details. The newest project is open for submissions, pick a theme, sign up at their site, and pay $25. They will then send you your book, the rest is up to you... The Art House gang states that the books for this tour are of a heavy weight paper (something new), I'll let you know what I think of the new books when I receive mine. Like the past three projects the books will be on tour in various cities across the US, the only difference this newest one will also travel to Canada, Australia, and England. Go to their site to find out more. http://arthousecoop.com/
It feels like a lifetime has passed since I've drawn... Oh well, I finally got off my ass and finished the taxes... Then took a break from working on the house to draw. I need to get busy and get out the clay... so much to do and so little time.
