Book description
Pulsing with ideas, energy and inspiration, Sketchbook
Confidential offers a rare peek inside the personal sketchbooks of
40+ master artists. From colorful painted sketches to spontaneous
napkin doodles, from the intensely personal to the purely whimsical,
most of the work here was produced quickly and never intended for
public view. It is honest and immediate, fresh and fearless.
In their own words, the artists share the intentions and inspirations
behind their sketching. For some, it is a cherished, everyday habit -
a way of wandering through the ideas in their mind, playing around
with new subjects, or just having some anything-goes kind of fun. For
others, sketching is a deliberate tool for problem-solving - working
through a composition, capturing a moment's light or test-driving a
color scheme.
As you turn the pages you'll be immersed in the creative processes of
these individuals, arriving on the other side with a feeling of
kinship and a renewed desire to boldly capture life in your own sketchbooks!
