The Art of a Sketchbook


Some times I will pick something to sketch and think 'oh, I can do better' so I will try it again.

 I thought a good name for Godiva Ice Cream would be 'Sin in a Cardboard Container'.

After a second attempt I still wasn't happy with some of the sketch so I give it another try.

I think sketchbooks are a great place to give ideas a try.  Not to mention it gives you someplace to remember the indulgence of some yummy stuff.

  1. I like to sketch and paint containers because so much thought has always gone into designing them. They're perfect for practicing.
