You can feel their inspiration and excitement for art through their art and commentary.There are sketches on abstract imagery. figure drawings. landscapes. and many more. whether imaginary or sketched plein-air. Some are quite colourfully painted I dont know if they should be called sketches. Its not all pencils and ink.Each artist only has a brief 4 pages of coverage.
