2021 Sketch Books (eBook) now available

This post comes late! I've been putting work into the Patreon page, did a Youtube video this month and also working on another Skillshare course that should be out before end of this year. Amidst all that, I've been wanted to finish this project since the beginning of the year - putting together the 2021 sketch books into one eBook. 

This took way longer than I imagined. Scanning felt like a really tedious process. I was scanning these pages in high resolution and I also had to deal with the book gutters by either removing the staples that hold the books together or pressing them against the scanner in some way so the pages stay flat. After several months of doing this, off and on, I decided I had to finish it this week. I put it all in a layout, adjusted and re-adjusted, found pages I forgot to scan, got them scanned, checked, tweaked, and finally got it done! Phew! I do like how it turned out.

I know that my last batch of e-Sketch books captured my drawings from over a decade ago. That's a long time ago. Now, these Sketch Books collect my recent drawings from about 4 years ago. Have I improved over time? Has my art changed? You can be the judge of that.

Why did I choose 2021? When I looked through this series, I felt it had a nice variation of styles and mediums. There was comics, comic diaries and observational drawings and also random imaginative drawings. These pages inspire me to draw more, when I look at them, even without them looking polished and perfect. I actually like them because of the imperfections. I did a sketchbook tour of these sketch books on Youtube. I will get to the sketch books from other years, perhaps another time:)
