  • A sketchbook is a personal artistic tool, therefore is better if we customize it to our needs. Let me share with you the development of my sketchbooks, from cover designs to the type of paper.

    Please show your high school sketchbooks! It'd be really nice to see how you developed over the years plus it may motivate people to work harder and not give up.

    I bet if we get the word out, we could get more than enough serious artists to order and buy those handmade sketchbooks... He could stay open and pass on the specialty in perpetuity. I definitely want some.

    This video was really cool César!
    Actually, a few weeks ago, inspired by your sketchbooks, I grabbed some sheets of Canson paper I had around, and binded them in a simple handmade sketchbook. Did anyone else tried this? There are plenty of videos on youtube teaching simple bookbinding techniques. I just picked one and give it a go. Obviously, it didn't came out with a polished look, but for me it feels more special than if I had bought one.
    Thanks for the ideas/ possibilities/ inspirations!
    Um abraço,
    Ricardo
