MoMA Make Art Mistakes

An Inspired Sketchbook for Everyone

“This lively sketchbook contains decorative graphic spreads and prompts that ask readers to integrate their own words and drawings. Quotations from artists such as O’Keeffe and Picasso invite deeper reflection on making art while loosely introducing themes on line, color, pattern, and texture. Most of the exercises emphasize free expression (‘make a self-portrait using your favorite colors’), while others introduce concepts like perspective. Young artists are likely to enjoy the balance between instruction and independent exploration.” — Publisher’s Weekly
