Book Four: Evolver
This artbook is quite a bit different than any of the previous ones, so be sure to read this all carefully before deciding to join...
Firstly, it's a hand-made book, meaning that I personally stitched the signatures together, cut the sheets, laid out the cover and spine, and designed everything custom, by hand. I even numbered each page. So in that way, there's quite a bit of blood sweat and tears involved. That said, here's the way it's going to work:
The idea for this book is to combine art and writing to share our ideas and play off one another's work. That means that you don't have to do a full page yourself. If you want to leave the rest to someone else, that's fine. In fact, it's recommended. Come up with something random: a discussion you eavesdropped on, a description of someone you know, or an interesting dream you had. You can either write it or draw it, but the point is to let someone else interpret it from their angle.
So if you're all about keeping your work yours, this may not be the book for you. This one's all about collaborating and watching the ideas evolve as they go from one person to the next. As always, we want this to be accessible to everyone for upload here, so keep it clean.
The specs:
Pages: 220
Dimensions: 6" x 9"
Paper: Strathmore Drawing, 80lb.
Other: has a pleated pocket on the inside front cover & comes with AC stickers

Hey Kelly I slid you down the list just a bit because I got a message from Esther asking to join this book, and since she hasn't had a chance yet and you've had a couple, I thought I get her in there first, k?

Lol, so sad, so true. Ideally, you'd get this in about 3 months, but you know how it goes. Either way, you're in. Oh, by the way, you'll be getting a book on Wednesday from Kelly!

Yay. I have it. My first artbook. Will be posting stuff by beginning of next week hopefully, as I've formulated a few ideas (I think).
