This is the 2006 sketchbook.
For the 2007 sketchbook, click here.  :)

(this is about 185 sketchbook pages total, on 93 web pages)

DISCLAIMER: Everyone in my sketchbook looks a lot better in real life than in my sketches.
These are just quick, 5-60 second sketches and they don't do anyone justice. ;)

ALSO -- if you see misinformation in this book, please contact me and I will correct it.
This is just one person's view of a very enjoyable but exhausting week, and I don't want
to let any mistakes stand, if it's possible to amend them. Thank you!  :)

NOTE: The conference speakers copyright their talks and I don't want to rob from them,
so if I left any of their talk in, it's a very small part of all the great things they said.

Feel free to link to this sketchbook or pass it on to friends -- I'd be honored.

Bloggers/Websites linked to this sketchbook -- thank you!!!!! --

To those who take the time to read my sketchbook: T H A N K  Y O U!
And to those who read last year's NYC sketchbook and encouraged me
to do a book for kids in the same style:  T H A N K  Y O U !!!!
I did as you suggested, and selling that book has changed my life.
