52 playful exercises, inspired by art history, to spark inspiration and encourage a regular creative practice

A beautiful and inspiring gift for budding creators and experienced artists alike, this guided sketchbook from the brand Art Life Practice features dozens of prompts to unleash readers’ imaginations and offer a daily dose creativity.
 
The book serves as both an introduction to a wide range of art-making techniques (from blind contour sketching to collage) and a bit of art history 101, as many of the prompts are inspired by renowned artists’ work and are accompanied by quotes from the artists as well as brief biographies. In one exercise you’ll be doodling simple organic shapes in the vein of a Matisse cutout, the next sketching a pet portrait while learning about David Hockney’s love of his dachshunds. Part creative play, part art instruction, the Guided Sketchbook is an interactive tool to inspire, educate, and transform.

Genre:

  • Nonfiction
  • Games & Activities
