sketchbooks

sketchbooks are the most important asset in an artist’s studio. sketchbooks represent a safe place for thinking, experimenting, playing and getting to the bottom of things. in many cases, sketchbooks are personal and rarely seen by the outside world. if you’re lucky, an artist will let you peak inside their labyrinth of sketches, paintings, writings and bloopers. Pictured here is a collection of original artworks plus a few master studies using John Singer Sargent’s famous graphite portraits.
