Artist's Sketchbook for Imaginary Trips

“This is how far this course has come! I hope that you have enjoyed the exercises and that you have found inspiration in the itinerary that I have proposed. I think it is very important that for your first notebook you do not have any fear of being wrong, and that you use the collage as a wild card to feel confident that you can always paste over it and give the page a second chance. To make my imaginary travel notebook "Through the window", the first thing I did was make a mind map where I thought about materials, structure and reference images, I took photographs and prepared a moodboard.

On the other hand, if in addition to the Domestika community, you want to share your creation with everyone, I invite you to upload photos of your pieces to Instagram with the hashtag #ElViajeImagianrioDomestika I think the sketchbook video tours are a fantastic way to tell the anecdotes of your imaginary journey. It has been a pleasure to accompany you on this adventure. Good trip. ”
