Remember that "sketchbookbook" I told you about a few months ago? ¿No?
Last year I was asked to be a small part of a new book compiled by Everyday Matters author Danny Gregory. Honored, I gathered together some of my favorite 2007 Lentenblog sketches and a few other Moleskine goodies, and packaged them up and sent them off to NYC.
Over the next few months, as the sketches started pouring in from around the world, Danny gave contributors little sneak peeks, so we could catch a glimpse of the other artists' work. Trust me: this is going to be a cool book. One I'm honored to be part of. Anyway, it'll be 272 pages, full color, and chock-full of a wide array of illustrated journals, inky sketchbooks, watercolored Moleskines, with essays and interviews with the artists as well.
It's finished now, and being printed and readied for distribution in December:
An Illustrated Life: Drawing Inspiration
From The Private Sketchbooks Of
Artists, Illustrators And Designers.
You can now pre-order it through Amazon and knock a third off the price!
I can't wait! Get the word out, bloggers, ye!

Most excellent! It's on my wish list.

paul -- this is really cool. it's great to get published for the simple things, i imagine, that we take for granted and really see re-expressed in visual art forms that everyone can digest. bravo.
