The time has finally come! Introducing: The Sketchbook Project Tour: 2011. A sketchbook is a place to put your heart and soul. Let it out into the wild; we’ll keep you connected. This is one of our most exciting projects to date. You sign up, pick your theme, and we send you the sketchbook! Fill it up and send it back and we will take it on tour to Brooklyn, Atlanta, Chicago, San Francisco, Austin, Portland, and more! To sign up or for the full set of rules, please check out http://www.thesketchbookproject.com
Your book is unique. And you can track it. Your sketchbook will be given a barcode with a unique number - this allows us to keep track of your book and record who views it at every tour date and while it's in The Brooklyn Art Library. And after we catalog it, artists will be able to log-on and view realtime statistics about their book for years to come.
Viewing notifications Each and every single time your book is viewed, you'll receive an e-mail or a text message alerting you what city it was viewed in and the first name of the person browsing through it (well, only as long as they provide their name!) Even better, you can turn these notifications on or off at will.
Never get lost. Just like your local library, we know exactly where each sketchbook is hiding. You can send friends, family, and art lovers to The Brooklyn Art Library and we'll be able to immediately pull your book - or any other work you may have displayed with us - for them to view. Same goes for our tour. We like to keep things organized.
Your information is in the pocket. There's a handy pocket attached to the inside cover of every sketchbook. Inside this pocket, you can place a card that contains your artist information - anything from a short biography to your website address.
A custom library card Every person who views a book, whether it be at the exhibition or in The Brooklyn Art Library, receives a library card to use while browsing. As a participating artist, you'll receive a limited edition library card with your name on it.
Can't make it to an exhibition? With artists participating from all around the world, we know it's impossible for everyone to be able to see our exhibitions. But we don't like "impossible." We'll be filming exhibitions from the tour so our far-away artists can see first-hand how viewers interact with their work. And the exhibition at The Brooklyn Art Library will be broadcast live over the internet! Take that, impossible.
We know how precious a sketchbook is. You carry it with you everywhere, spending months working on it. It becomes a part of you. When you're finished, share your hard work with the world. We'll make sure you stay connected with your sketchbook as it tours the country and after we catalog it in The Brooklyn Art Library.The time has finally come!

The Art House Co-op in ATL, Georgia sent out A LOT of sketchbooks across the country- artists from all over filled them in and 2,700 were sent back! The Art House Co-op is now driving on a cross country art exhibition tour known as The Sketchbook Project III! I got involved in this and it comes to Brooklyn, New York this Friday, March 13 where you can find ME partying it up and talking about art! (3rd Ward Gallery, Brooklyn NY, 11237.) This video takes a look at how I made my sketchbook.
The theme was "Everyone We Know", so I got my friends, some of whom might not normally consider themselves artists, to help me out! I also dedicated the book to my art mentor and grandmother, Emma Davy- March 13 is actually the anniversary of her death, and I couldn't think of a better way to honor her memory than an art show!
If you will be in the NY area come checkity check me out- if not, let me know what you think of the video (it's my first time recording and editing one!) and the sketchbook- you can find a slideshow of all the pages on my blog, deliatheartist.blogspot.com.The Art House Co-op in ATL, Georgia sent out A LOT of sketchbooks across the country-... more
