An essential guide to sketchbooks and their complete record of the creative process.

Sketchbooks are an essential part of the creative process for artists of all disciplines, ranging from textiles and jewellery to interior design, printmaking and ceramics. The sketchbook is a complete record of the creative process which, it can even be argued, could even be more important than the finished object at the end of this process.

This book is a vital resource for artists of all levels including students, makers and collectors, as it not only gives practical advice about building your own sketchbooks but also provides examples of different artists' working methods.

Extraordinary Sketchbooks takes you through different themes and functions for sketchbooks, including drawing to collect visual research, course work, developing concepts and suggestions for making simple and quick visuals into exciting images. For inspiration, explore the gallery of work from a range of artists including recent graduates, practising artists, lecturers and working professionals form a variety of art and design industries. This is an essential creative resource for artists everywhere.
