BASICS OVERVIEW

FORM



MOST IMPORTANTLY…you need a BOOK.
sketchbooks are typically BLANK (no extraneous details to interfear with your beauteous creations)
Spiral-bound, hardback covers, one of those ‘moleskine’ thangs, whatever strikes your fancy and inspires you to get those creative juices flowing!
Usually PORTABLE.
Same goes for materials, pen, pencil, watercolors, mostly things that won’t trash your purse while you’re sketching on the run. 

CONTENT

Personal
Creative/Artistic exploration
Sketches (OBVIOUSLY),
doodles
cartoons
collage
found objects
paint (watercolor usually),
Observational drawings
Experimentational work
Informal
You can get all up in other
people’s content on websites like:
Artist’s sketchbooks online

The key compontent to sketchbooking:
 YOU CAN DO WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT IN THERE.

AUDIENCE
Yourself.  (artistic reflection)
future generations of art appreciators
*IF you’re inspiring/actually have artistic talent
The world wide web if your sketchbook goes viral
