I have just bought a book called An Illustrated Life. I thought it looked very interesting because it is a collection of pages from different artists sketchbooks. This helps me understand as part of the collections project but the content also really interests me.

"I have a lot of friends in all corners of the world who share my love for illustrated journaling and sketchbooking Some are famous designers and artists, some are just people like me who live to drawin their spare time. This boks collects fifty of them together to talk about their journaling life, share their POVs on media, on style, on the artistic life. Writing it was a real education and deeply inspiring. I still turn to it all the time for new insights and directions." Author, Danny Gregory
