2012 THE SKETCHBOOK PROJECT (Obsession In Green)

So I got involved in the amazing Sketchbook Project, which is based out of the Brooklyn Art Library. They send sketchbooks to the winning organisations (e.g. art schools,) and the participants (students) fill in the sketchbooks with original works. They then send them back to the U.S., where they are sent on an international exhibition!

Sadly I didn’t get to fill up every page, but here are some of the highlights:

Hi Poly, loving your work and your sketchbook. I’ve just finished mine and I hope to see it in Brooklyn, along with many others including yours, next year when we travel to the U.S. Great to see so many people taking up the challenge and picking up their pencils

  Thank you so much!
  I had a look at yours too, it was amazing! I love how much detail and layering there is.
  I wish I could have had more time on mine, but never mind. I’m glad you’re enjoying it, and the blog.
