he's off!

yep. he's off. posted him this morning. a long wait and then the till officer asking me registered, or not? i dunno. what if he goes astray, awry, underway? need to trust then, hey?

i haven't blabbed a thing about this business, but now my preps are done, i let you in on a sneak preview. (whole booklet here). via i-cannot-remember-where-and-who-on-w3 i stumbled upon THE SKETCHBOOK PROJECT 2011. before i could say schtum, i'd ordered a moleskine notebook, in order to participate. thrilled, excited, daunted. or what? 

more than that, i hardly had time to fill the notebook all up! so i took him on the commuter, made people stare, glued pages together (is that a cheat? ☻), and made it. just in time.

if i tell you it is really just a little booklet filled with doodling nonsense, will you judge me (not)? such fun nonetheless and it didn't half relieve the renovation tension from time to time... i can highly recommend.
PS - for the honeyz reading in the states : this doodle booklet will be part of a traveling exhibition until well into mid 2011. so look at the dates a-here, and if you make it, tell me, won't ya's? kick off in brooklyn.
