The Sketchbook 18 Rocks! Drive

Diamond Pride Stretch Alysha, Hostess
Samples from Sketchbook 18


In most every "decade" of sketchbooks, there's some milestone, some event that stands out among the ten. Sometimes it's fairly minor, a blip on the radar.

And sometimes, it's huge.

In the 11-20 decade I was in college... and by the later part of that set, I was far enough advanced in my studio art degree to start taking art history courses. The Gothic, Renaissance and Modern Art History classes were staggering. Sketchbook 18 in particular is full of long, patient drawings, done in class, out of class...everywhere. There's a lot of stippling. A lot of brush-work. A lot of inking. Looking at Sketchbook 11 and then Sketchbook 18, you'd think years had passed.

I happen to think Sketchbook 18 rocks, and I would love to have more of it online! If you'd like to, too, here's the button. If you want to be acknowledged as sponsoring the scans, remember to leave me a comment!

I could only donate $5... but that counts as coffee money, anyways! :) It felt really good to give something after watching you for so long. This was always my favorite "era" in your archives, so I'm super-excited to see more!

PS - the donation is going to say its from "Herbert" as well as "endlessland", so FYI, its my father's PayPal account (used with permission).

$5 isn't "only" anything. Given that there are probably dozens of people who enjoy my work but don't have the money to donate or the time to leave me a comment... well, $5 puts you in the upper echelon of people who show their appreciation!
