The Sketchbook Project: Starting My Sketchbook

Starting my first page in this sketchbook for The Sketchbook Project!

I was gifted a sketchbook from The Sketchbook Project in 2019 by my good friend Jisun. I didn’t fill it out. So I decided the first personal art project I wanted to complete in 2020 would be to finally complete this sketchbook and send it back.

The Sketchbook Project is a crowdfunded sketchbook museum located in Brooklyn, New York. There are currently over 47,000 sketchbooks located in the library, which anyone can visit. How amazing is it that you can check out the books and hold other people’s art in your own hands? I hope I get to visit one day!

This below video documents the start of my sketchbook. In it, I explain the theme of my book: smile along with what I plan to (or think I’m planning to) create in it.

I’ll make sure to share a tour of the book after I’m done. Wish me luck!

As always, thank you for reading & watching
Susan
