I think we should have more time to do this, but not so long as to put it off and still be running late LOL
.............

Some of you did the sketch book projects what can you tell us about them?



I did the Sketchbook Project and it was fun. I had been to the mountains and fell in love with the woods again, so I got off to a to a great start in my book "Things That Change Other Things", I began with sketches in black and white of a single tree, flowing into a forest of tress, then a steel saw, a hammer, barbed wire, electric saws, etc, then a tree that was made of picket fence posts , then a fence surrounding and into a house, into a city, then back to a single tree. I colored some, painted some, left forest stark black and white. A huge storm with lightning, and electricity lighting the city and just a simple colored pencil sketch of a 2 X 4 with a bent nail.

It took months and I lingered at the end due to work and Life in general, thus, I left some pages just sketches, and turned it in on time. So, getting started early on a big project is a good idea.

Here's another question: Am I correct in assuming that all pages should be 8.5 x 11 (standard typing paper size, I believe)? Please confirm YES or NO by posting. Thank you.

Diva 02-11-2011 10:02 AM

In further reading, I guess I can do only one letter. And up to 3 pages of that letter.

I hope we don't have 27 "N" pages! lol

Ok....I feel like I'm being a pain in the a$$ now....

BUT (no pun intended)......... so we do our page[s], the Pixie photographs them for the book? Or do the originals go in the book? And if it's just the photograph, do we get our originals back?

I think Tommi was saying no more than three pages....regardless of letter....
But one of each isn't ridiculous if you want to contribute that.

I'm with Diva! I had hoped to do a page for all six chapters. I guess it would be difficult to bind that many pages together though.

Pixie 02-11-2011 10:40 AM

I will figure out the binding no worries...yall just get creative...and whatever inspires you to do however many will be just fine!

I'm doing one for each letter. Would I be limited to one each? What if I got really excited with P

Looks like you were posting an answer to my question at the same time I was posting the question! Impressive. :)

Gemme- I agree with you on this. Going with the P~L~A~N~E~T chapters, I've been trying to think of ways to work it in. I was thinking about topics like: coming out, identity, aging, acceptance, gender, love, family, community, etc. I guess I'd better get creative. :seeingstars:

nycfem 02-11-2011 11:57 AM

Okay... making sure I have this right. pixie correct me if i'm wrong:

We can do any size pages, though the max is 8.5 x 11. If it's smaller Pixie can put the smaller page on an 8.5 x 11 so that all pages are the same size.

We can do as few or as many pages as we want. The only thing is that we have to be able to say which chapter it goes under (P L A N E T), with each letter standing for whatever each of us want it to stand for.
