Sketchbook Skool Book Chat discussion

This is way-kool Kate!!!

This group is a great idea! Thanks Kate!

Kate, great idea!! I feel like on Facebook great suggestions just scroll past and then are gone forever. Now we will be able to get back to them! Thanks..you have done your good deed for the month!

Love that you started this resource. Thank you!

Once I'm done with my open studio show (this weekend) - I'm definitely going to check out the bookshelves! I may have one or 2 to add as well.

Excellent idea!

I may have messed up the Illustration Inspiration page by putting two books about art and spirituality that I love. Neither artist author thinks of spirituality in a traditional sense so people who are slightly allergic to the "s" word probably will find something sympatico there. My experience with art making is that it connects me to something larger than myself and each of the books expplores that.

I can't figure out how to add books to the group, I added some of my personal books, but when I click on add it takes me to a list of books (not my books)… is there somewhere here to get help or a tutorial on how this works?

Color and Light: A Guide for the Realist Painter"
I did that last night, now I can't figure it out again… dinosaurs shouldn't be allowed on computers :-)
UPDATE… I figured it out and added a couple more.. I will not whine about it anymore I promise.

Hey Dino, feel free to whine. I have the same problem.

Many of us are of a similar age range. I was a library media specialist for 24 years. I taught computer skills, but without being kept up to the mark and informed on new technology, I feel out of the loop now. My iPhone is my lifeline and umbilicus to the world, but I need less technology and more hands on in retirement - paper books, knitting, sketching. It's okay to need clear cut instructions on how to do these "new-fangled" things as my grandmother would have said.
