What would be the link between the Sketchbook and the Oscars ? Well, this year, many artists invited to the Sketchtravel challenge will probably watch attentively the 79TH Annual academy Awards. Especially Chris Appelhansbecause he did an amazing work on Monster House, Enrico Casarosa and Daniel Lopez Munoz because they work at Pixar and "Cars" is also nominated and of course Michael Knapp who was the artistic director on this excellent short : " No time for nuts"at Bluesky Studios. Some of his awesome colleagues will be nervous too : the famous Scrat creator : Peter de Sève, The talented Story Boarder Nash Dunnigan and one of the funniest workaholic artist : Vincent NGuyen.
My god...so many huge talents you'll find in ONE sketchbook, such a pressure...and we just have officially announced 28 artists on 50...
Sketchtravel is a unique international charity art project. This red sketchbook was passed from one artist's hand to another like an Olympic torch in an artistic relay through 12 countries over 4 and half years. Now the book is complete and it will be auctioned on Oct 17th 2011 to benefit the non profit Room to Read
