“Sketchbooks are fascinating; they are a window into an artist's or designer's mind, revealing their unique way of looking at or thinking about the world. However, the sketchbook has become a much fetishised object featured in countless books, blog's and social-media accounts showcasing stylised and curated examples that few can emulate. It is no wonder that at some point on the Foundation course every student articulates anxiety or frustration over their own sketchbook: it's too big, too small, too messy, too contrived, I can't draw, what's it for? So why do we work with a sketchbook and what is it really for?” ArtHigher EducationFeArt SchoolHeFurther EducationSketchbook Book:The Central Saint Martins Guide to Art & Design: Key lessons from the world-renowned Foundation course Source: The Central Saint Martins Guide to Art & Design: Key lessons from the world-renowned Foundation course
