Great article and even better recommendations on getting back into a sketchbook practice. Your book recommendations are also very interesting. I can recommend two very good compilation of artists sketchbooks put together by Danny Gregory: An Illustrated Life, and An illustrated Journey. These two books are amazingly inspiring.

I expected Visionary, as I can rarely get going, but got Voyager.. maybe a little bit of each. I like the idea of copying, which I hesitated to fo, and keeping pen and paper handy. Great post!

Yes, so many things unlock when you give yourself permission to copy! Glad you enjoyed, Janice!
