pictures for all February 10, 2008
Simply put, this is a fantastic array of street styles. From an artists perspective, it's always great to have images lying around for inspiration. Sketchbooks are frequently a fairly intimate form of an artists work, where ideas are collected, and as a result these pages really give great insight into these selected artist's work, both in terms of process and how their final ideas are formed. With a perfectly concise preface, and only a little explanation from the artists on their own work, the images are left to speak for themselves. Particular favourites were Amose, Blu, turf one and Will Barras, but so saying, all artists featured were intriguing, and none felt out of place. Just a great coffee table picture book for urban art fanatics.

An outstanding new book on the subject of art. This book looks at the often overlooked subject of the sketchbook as integral to the artistic process. The images and artworks included are contemporary and provide a new perspective on the subject. This book is written with creativity, commitment and integrity and would be an invaluable resource for all art students and artists.
