What makes a good sketchbook

To me, a sketchbook is like the inner workings of your brain. It's creative, sometimes messy and all over a jumble of stuff.

From today's lecture, I was able to understand more about the enhances of a good sketchbook. Something that I thought of once as a book filled with who knows what can know become a detailed description of who I am and how I see the world. Just like this blog, it's a way to express the views and ideas you have.

The five parts of a sketchbook: analysis, primary, secondary, PLAY and development. They give an idea on which direction you should be heading into when looking into a sketchbook. Or as many call it "workbook". I think the main thing about these five sections is how they correlate with each other. I think that even though I may be (not trump my own horn but....) good at analysing and seeing in-between the lines of a subject and or picture, the way I write about it and select what to do with that information I find is the bit I struggle on. I think breaking down each section part by part looking at whether or not I can create a subject heavy with information and understanding from my part will be the mystery. Oh sketchbook I will conquer you and all your detailed descriptions.
