A lovely, lovely project.

If you're into sketchbooks, you should sign up to be a part of this lovely project. I will definitely be participating! The project was created by Art House, and anyone can join. To start, each participant receives a blank sketchbook... You choose from the list of themes (for example, "I remember you", "Hope", "Travel With Me", "In Ten Minutes," "The Worst Story Ever Told", and many more), and then you're free to start drawing away.  At the end of the project, everyone mails their sketchbook in and they go on tour, traveling the country... on display at various art events, and they also get cataloged in the Brooklyn Art Library. People from all over will get to see your work.

So many themes to choose from... Looking forward to this.

Here is the website if you're interested in learning more:

The sign-up deadline is October 31, 2011, and you have to send the finished book in by Jan 31, 2012, so it can be ready for the tour in April.  Love it :)
