The sketchbook is hidden source of incredible artwork.  James Jean is an example of what lies beneath the published piece of art.   With over 50 sketchbooks of my own, I decided to share my pages thorough a the www.bestsketchbook.com site.   It's a perpetual means to sharing artwork generated in artist's sketchbooks.

Drawing magazine is very smart to expose the sketch art in Jean's books.  Many aspiring artists ask, how to improve their drawing skills.  The best sketchbooks in the world are full of drawings.   From inside cover to the back.  Practice, consistency, and carrying your sketchbook with you at all times is key.   Many of my greatest ideas come from sitting in a room of chaos!
