Good art and craft do not just happen. They are part of a process.
Artists research, they experiment, they play, they explore, they reject, they amend, they abandon, they destroy, they manipulate. They ask ‘what if ?’ or ‘how about ?’
They start again.
They use sketchbooks to record, to plan, to propose, to develop, to work out, to design, to illustrate, to think and rethink, to store, to create, to imagine, to capture, to examine ideas, and to sketch just for the pleasure of it.
And at some point each artist says ‘This works’.
This fascinating glimpse into the sketchbooks of our members captures some of this creative journey.
