Every Artist needs a sketchbook. In this class it is required. If you would like to purchase your own sketchbook that is fine. Please do not go bigger than 8x10. (it is up to you, however the self made sketchbook is not that big.

Follow the instructions to create a sketchbook of your own. You might find that there is not enough paper. That is perfectly fine! Just make another one and we will stitch them together.
