This review is from: Artist's Journal Workshop: Creating Your Life in Words and Pictures (Paperback)
Artist's Journal Workshop is a wonderful book for anyone looking to start a sketch journal. It's a 144-page paperback with beautifully laid out pages. It's packed with lots of tips on finding ideas, and from there, you can discover which style suits you. This book really brings across how fun sketching can be. There are 27 artists who share their sketch pages in this book. Some of them are Danny Gregory, Nina Johansson, Liz Steel, Lapin, Cathy Johnson herself, of course, and many more. They also share their insights. Since this book is about journaling, the examples are mostly about illustrating what you see. It can be drawing people, places, animals or food. It's very inspiring to check out all the artists' work, even the seemingly mundane stuff look interesting when illustrated. Highly recommended, especially to sketchbook lovers. (There are more pictures of the book on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)

By Marva Plummer-bruno "books galore" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Artist's Journal Workshop: Creating Your Life in Words and Pictures (Paperback)
This is an awesome book! I've painted in watercolors for years but just started journaling a few years ago. This is an informative and inspirational book, with new things to try, information on paints and watercolor pencils and more! I highly reccomend it if you're just starting out or if you've been painting for years!
