The Sketch Book Generator

A unique mix-and-match book that generates more than 40,000 ideas for tackling a blank sketchbook page

Designed to kickstart creativity for artists and hobbyists, the pages of this book are divided into three separate sections that can be flipped, mixed, and matched to generate more than 40,000 unique sketchbook prompts! Jennifer Orkin Lewis, author of Draw Every Day and 100 Days of Drawing, has gained a dedicated following on Instagram by posting her daily sketches.

The Sketchbook Idea Generator is her response to one of the most frequent questions she receives: how does she come up with all of her ideas? It begins with an introductory section, in which Jennifer provides examples of her work as well as insight into her process of interpreting a prompt. The rest of the book consists of pages that are sliced into three “tabs” that represent the three essential elements of a good drawing prompt: medium, color, and subject. Together, the three tabs tell you what to draw, what art supplies to use, and which colors to choose. With those basic decisions made, you can get right down to it!
