A little while ago, I discovered this awesome website called The Art House Co-op. This is a website that offers collaborative art projects to participate in for anyone who would like to sign up. I signed up for The Sketchbook Project, wherein they send you a sketchbook with a theme and you fill it up and send it back. I’m particularly excited, because though I am usually in the habit of keeping a journal/sketchbook for my drawings and doodles and thoughts, I have been without one for quite sometime. My theme is “Elephant in the Room.” I’ll be posting some of my pages up here for all to see. I’m excited to have a sketchbook that actually has a tangible purpose and a due date (January 4th) and an exhibition associated with it. It gives me a solid reason to spend time working on it. While I don’t ever need a reason to make stuff, sometimes it’s hard to give myself permission because of all the other things I should be doing. It will be lovely to see what people come up with. I’m really excited.
