Pulsing with ideas, energy and inspiration, Sketchbook Confidential offers a rare peek inside the personal sketchbooks of 40+ master artists. From colorful painted sketches to spontaneous napkin... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is about artists who use sketching as a tool toward their bigger paintings. It is not a celebration at all of sketching in general. The emphasis is about the artists using the sketch. Few of them appeared to value the sketch in and of itself, with exceptions: Jean Pederson or Dan Barrett. What I am more interested in is a celebration of the sketchbook (even if not IN a sketchbook per se).
That said, the book is laid out nicely, good imagery of some of their sketches, with commentary by the artists.
