Tips on Posting your own sketchbook pages and art work.

It would be awesome if everyone could make a post where you share a couple of your favorite pieces form last year, or new sketchbook pages you have already done. You can keep adding to the same post. I plan to keep adding new images to my Zeller's Sketchbook post through out the summer.

Please do not be shy about commenting on my own, or others work (Just keep it thoughtful and helpful) And do not be shy about posting your own work- even sketches that took you only 30 minutes or less to complete.

Remember, you are all authors of this blog. I envision it becoming a solid community for VSAA visual artists to stay connected, share resources, share work, and comment on each others work.

Next time I check this, I'm looking forward to seeing someone else's post besides my own. :)
