i did something like this before where we had a list of like 30 items and we’d have to come up w/art for each piece, i did it but then never followed up and got the final book. hrm. this also sounds fun, but a full moleskine of sketches (you get a blank moleskine w/a bar code and theme and you have until january 15th to fill it then send it back and all the sketchbooks go on tour in galleries and museums. at the end they will be permanently housed at the brooklyn art library, and they’ll digitize your book!) i can barely finish unpacking, hehe.
