The Traveling Artbook is a project where a sketch book is sent around the world to various artists who all contribute to the book by drawing on a few pages, and then passing it on to the next artist.
If you would like to be one of the artists who gets the Travelling Artbook, here's how it works!
a.) Comment on this journal. I will comprise a list of everyone who will get the artbook on it's journey. I will also try to work out its path so that the least amount of people as possible will have to pay international postage. I will also work out how many pages each person gets to ensure that the entire book gets used, and that everyone involved has an opportunity to draw in it!
b.) Once you're on the list, we will track progress of the book. I don't want to set a defined time line, but you should probably be able to receive, draw, and send the artbook in less than two weeks. The sooner you are, the faster the book moves! (It will likely take two years, even at this rate!) You will have an address supplied for the next person to send it to.
c.) You have to be willing to pay the postage to send the book. It will likely also require the purchase of a larger envelope or some kind of packaging. So this may cost you a few dollars, but there's nothing I can do to avoid this. I think it should be between 5 - 10 CDN But I'm not sure (I will look up standard rates and post on this entry when I get a chance). If you are incapable or unwilling to pay this, please don't sign up!
If you would like to join, but money is a problem for you let me know and I will TRY to avoid making you send it internationally if I can, that's the best I can do ;_;
[edit:] submissions now closed! I might not even be able to fit everyone into the book as is. Feel free to still apply, as I'll always accept people I'm friends with and people whose art I really admore.
Book has been bought, will be sketched in and sent out soon! I will note people before their turn comes to acquire addresses!
People involved so far (tentative, not finalized list):
sister project
The traveling artbook has a sister project, the traveling notebook here fantasywriter88.deviantart.com… so if you write and don't draw (or if you do both!) check it out!

Come say Hi!
Many of you probably don't really know who I am, because I have somehow been accumulating new followers over the past 8 years despite my more or less inactivity on this website. But the reason that I stuck around DeviantART for so long was because of the community feeling of this place. I haven't been drawing or sharing that much over the past years because I have been focused on other things, but I am surprised to see that this community keeps on giving and giving!
I used to be very active here, and one of my favourite things was commenting and contributing to, and building the community here. The connection and friendships that we form, an
As you likely noticed... I have been very inactive on deviantart. I actually don't draw as much as I used to, but I have been travelling and being crafty. I decided to create an instagram to document some of it, and you can find it here if you are interested: http://instagram.com/lostlittlecanadian
Also, I have been sketching and doing some smaller stuff, and it will likely end up on there as well!
Tablet Size
I mentioned a (long) while back that I am going to get myself a new tablet. Well I am finally going to buy it. I am going to buy the Intuos 4, but I don't know if I should get the medium or large.
I had heard some people say that the large is too large and uncomfortable. Others say it was totally worth the splurge.
What do you guys think?
Medium (8.8" X 5.5") or large (12.8" X 8.0")??
Thanks! Hopefully I will get all of my hardware sorted out soon and will be posting some new stuff.
Back from Europe
Thanks for being patient with me, still going through my inbox! I will try to be posting more work now, I know I have't uploaded much over the past few years.
How was your summer?

that's a wonderful idea i'd wish to copy (someday it is) if i may. i dream of a conhon (convention book) going round in Europa, coming back, scanning and presenting the results here.
but judging from my personal conhon it gets back empty.
