The sketchbook came back from Georgia and Debbie Overton, a collage artist has made the 2nd entry. I like her theme of

Mary Ann, you are the 2nd person who has signed up so I will be sending the book shortly to Canada.

It's not too late to sign up and it would be wonderful if more members of this forum would participate. Just imagine holding a sketch by William Whitaker, or a insightful quote by Marvin Mattelson, a great sketch by Chris Saper, perhaps a famous doodle?! There are just too many of you to all mention, but I think you get the idea!

Here is a little self-portrait sketch by Mary Ann for the project. Mary Ann was rather busy and had the notebook for a while. Then one day she got to work and quickly did a spontaneous sketch of herself.

Writers do this creativity exercise, where they have to jot down any word that comes to mind. Surrealist took this exercise a step further and while meeting as a group, asked each member to quickly sketch what they could think of. This was an exercise in spontaneity and a wonderful way to get creative juices flowing. So remember, if you like to participate, the idea is to have fun and shed all sorts of inhibitions you might have!

The added quote is also quiet wonderful!

Thank you Mary Ann for taking part in this. The sketchbook will bow be traveling to Georgia, USA.

I hope others will join in as well...

Thanks for posting this Enzie. I forgot to take a snap of it.
(Again, sorry for taking so long).
Looking forward to seeing where this goes and how it develops.
