Making a Concertina (Accordion) Sketchbook

I had some leftover paper from my latest handmade sketchbook. I've been making sketchbooks for a while now to take around the city with me. And I always save off-cuts from projects involving matboard and cardboard so I had everything I needed to make my own concertina sketchbook. It's just a bit of fun. My sketchbook in Buenos Aires had a concertina page at the back and it was a lot of fun to use. So enjoy. Watch me make some mistakes along the way. They're always fun! As always, be sure to check out my website. There are a load of things for fellow artists like colour charts that I swatch on this channel available for download as a pdf. There are art book reviews and instructions on how to make your own sketchbook (with video here on YouTube). I also have a list of art stores in different cities including my hometown of Toronto. There are lists of artists who inspire me that you can find on Instagram or YouTube as well as others you’ll find in art history books. I also provide a list of art related podcasts and online courses. You can also see what I take when I'm urban sketching. And you can purchase handmade watercolour through my website! So much for you for all things art. https://www.eileenreillyarts.com/ or follow me on Instagram @eileenreillyarts and @ot.to_watercolour
