Watching a Sketchbook episode is like looking at a painting: you never know what you will find or what it will mean to you, but it will teach you something you didn’t know before. A sketchbook is a lot more than that, and the THU Sketchbook series is a testimony to this fact. This is perhaps the most common misconception relating to sketchbooks: that they are just for the artist themself, or at the most, for other artists seeking inspiration. And you don’t have to be an artist in order to let your mind roam freely and your creativity foster. The first episode, featuring Jeremy Mann, is already available. Each episode needs time to sink into your mind, which is why we will release one every Friday until September 18.

Thanks to its partnership with Lenovo and NVIDIA, THU is now ready to release all episodes of this successful show for free on its YouTube channel, but not all at once, sadly for binge-watchers. With 24 episodes of pure inspiration through the sketchbooks of artists like Iain McCaig, Kim Jung Gi, Claire Wendling, Karla Ortiz, and Scott Eaton, this series will take you on an unexpected journey of self-discovery. A visual journey through something so intimate and personal can really change your perspective and surprise you, even if you’re not an artist.Īnd this is exactly what the THU Sketchbook series does. Sketchbooks are never perfect, because they aren’t created with the purpose of being published or even shared most of the time.

In a sketchbook an artist is free to make mistakes, to play, to lay down any masks they wear during the day. Sometimes places are abstract, they are an escape for the mind, and that escape, for an artist, can be their sketchbook.Ī sketchbook is somewhere where an artist feels safe to experiment, where they try new things, without any pressure or the fear of being judged. But a place doesn’t always have to be confined to a physical space you can enter.

As kids it can be under a blanket, as adults that safe place is your home. After all, everyone has a go-to safe place. As the Covid-19 pandemic spread across the globe, people all around the world began locking themselves inside their homes.
