Sketchbooks are used by artists to record thoughts, ideas and work out problems. I want my students to create their own sketchbook and use it as a tool to take notes, sketch and develop ideas. Each class will begin with students working in their sketchbook, where they will practice techniques and develop the skills they are learning as young artists.
