Sketchtravel represents the work of 71 illustrators, animators, and comic book artists. A red sketchbook was passed from artist to artist for over four years, culminating in an auction of the original book in Brussels on October 17, 2011. Proceeds from the publication will be donated to Room to Read, an international literacy non-profit.

It’s currently available for order through Amazon France, but Sketchtravel will soon be available in the U.S.!

I can’t wait to get a copy!
