Yuko Shimizu for Sketchtravel
A few weeks ago, I have said that we would finally only announce Artist when they would have the sketchbook in their hands but ...as usual, I can't resist.
Many people told me there was not enough women involved in this sharing experience. Because we know the full list, I asked them to be patient.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I introduce you to Yuko Shimizu. Yuko is officially part of this adventure. Welcome Yuko ! I can't wait to see your art in the Sketchbook ! Waiting for her contribution , you will fond above a sample of her astonishing work.
