For this sketchbook, I’ll be posting each page spread, with some description and info below. I figured we’d start off with the book itself. I got this sketchbook from a dollar store. Making art doesn’t have to be expensive - you can buy dollar store art supplies and still create something beautiful. The paper in this book is slightly thicker than printer paper, which was really appealing to me - I love to use all kinds of different mediums in my sketchbooks so I don’t want to be ripping or soaking through pages. The side view shows the book at the time I’m starting this blog - I’m about half way through filling it. I’ll take another side view once the book is full.
The image on the front of the book is a small collage (done by me of course) - there was an image on the book originally that I just didn’t vibe with, so I covered it. I also added the lace ribbon detail on the edge.
