Sketchbooks

This page is dedicated to sketchbooks. The art department has deemed the sketchbook an essential tool for idea development, visual thinking, drawing, research and generally keeping up with yourself.
Sketchbooks are important in all aspects of Visual Communications like; Graphic Design, Web Design, Animation, Drawing, Photography, Figure, Painting & Sculpture. At the same time, Journals (the sketchbook's sister), are kept in Art Therapy and Art Education.

Leonardo da Vinci used his sketchbook to record things he saw in nature, to work out ideas for new inventions and to see form and gesture more sensitively. His sketchbooks can still be an inspiration to us today.
