Hello,
With a new year starting soon, I wanted to share some ideas and inspiration for using our blank notebooks and journals as Sketchbooks. I recently finished using an old graph paper notebook as an abstract sketchbook, and I like using old notebooks as journals for both drawing and writing. I share a brief flick through 2 art books in my collection that show some professional artist inspiration for using lined notebooks, and composition notebooks as a fun place to get creative in several different ways.
Maybe like me, you have taken stock of your blank sketchbooks and journals, perhaps you have been gifted a couple over the holiday period or found some fun ones thrifting. Yes, expensive sketchbooks are amazing - but fun can equally be had in an empty notebook that might be hidden in the back of a drawer.
all the best,
Sonia
