Artists keep sketchbooks for ideas.
Your sketchbook for this class may take many directions and have many different looks, but the main purpose is to keep it for ideas. These could be ideas for future artwork or ideas you do not want to forget.
Here are some ideas for your sketchbook:
• just doodle (check out Google)
• sketch images from magazines
• write down a quote and illustrate it
• sketch the layout & design of websites you like, then sketch some ideas of your own design
• sketch what is around you at the moment
• search online for "altered books"
