‘I draw it in every day. Within the pages are comic strips that attempt to make sense of my own thoughts, feelings and reactions to the World as well as poems, hand drawn type, song lyrics, memorable quotes from films, TV, debate forums on all topics and interview chat shows from the 1970s and 80s.’ – Jim Stoten
Jim, as with many illustrators and artists, uses his sketchbook on a daily basis. To record ideas, thoughts and observations, but also to work through design problems and inner thoughts. The sketchbook as a tool isn’t to be under estimated and these pages ware testaments to the effort Jim devotes to this activity.
‘My sketchbook acts as a start point for so many things. Usually at the start of any type of project, whether it’s commissioned or personal, I’ll start by flicking through my most recent sketchbook to look for something I can start with and then build upon.’ – Extract from Everpress interview Read Full interview
