I started on this year's
Sketchbook Project. I decided my theme would be a visual travelogue of Venice, one of my favorite places ever. Like last year, the first thing I did was to take the whole thing apart and work on the cover. I'm going to rebind it with heavier paper so I can use paint.
The drawing on the cover is the Piazza San Marco. I figured it was appropriate because it's one of the most recognizable spots in Venice.
Has anyone else started this year's project? Which theme did you choose?
I love it so far!!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! Great cover and start to your project :-D
ReplyDeleteGreat drawing!
ReplyDeleteWow that looks amazing! Can't wait to see what you'll fill the sketchbook with! Mine is still empty, inside and out...
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you do when you start!
DeleteBeautiful! Love the way you have combined the black line sketch with bright bubbles!
ReplyDeletelove the colors, it looks great so far!
ReplyDeleteQuite beautiful
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing!!!! I can't believe the stuff you can do! I am excited to see your sketches...although it does sound that you will need to travel some more this year, you know, just so you don't run out of ideas. ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'll be traveling this year... just to the shore! Maybe next year.
DeleteWow! Fantastic cover and such a cute idea with all the dialogue balloons as contrast. But that intricate ink work, amazing!
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! I am still deciding on my theme. I am thinking of sticking with the "sketchbook" theme. See how I can push myself with it.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great theme I'm sure you'll have a lot of great ideas for the sketchbook! I'm excited to see the process!
ReplyDeleteI've never done the sketchbook project even though I think I should every year! I don't know why. I love your cover and theme. It's really smart to use heavier paper too. Can't wait to see what you do on the inside. :)
