I finally have some time to tell you all about my latest project! It is a small project which I only did for fun's sake and also because I wanted to get my mind off of things during these busy months.
As usual I focused on the folklore theme, in this case Dutch folklore, but let me first tell you a bit about the project itself.
The Sketchbook Project:
The Sketchbook Project, an initiative of Art House, is a collaboration of artists who submit their sketchbook in order to create the largest traveling sketchbook library in the world. Thousands of sketchbooks will be exhibited at galleries and museums as they make their way on tour across the USA. After the tour, all sketchbooks will enter into the permanent collections of the Brooklyn Art Library, where they will be bar coded and available for the public to view.
At the moment 28594 artists from 94 countries around the world are participating and one of these artist is me

About my Sketchbook:
It will probably not surprise you that I decided to work with the folklore theme for my own Sketchbook. I thus created a character: Mister Oswald who is a professional folklorist and story-collector. For his work he travels through Holland in order to collect as many folktales as possible. These tales he writes down in his journal, accompanied by drawings he makes and other things he finds on his way.
My sketchbook: Mister Oswald's journal, will thus be a collections of tales and drawings, old and new, put together in one small book. Which I hope many people will enjoy to read and view !
I will upload scans of the journal/sketchbook pages on my blog, Deviant Art account as well as my profile on Art House.
Those of you who are not able to visit one of the exhibitions can thus still see the sketchbook and read the folktales of my country.
You can view the entire contents of the sketchbook here: isabellasart.deviantart.com/ga…
Enjoy!

Happy New Year Everyone!
Hello old and new friends!
After three years of silence (and facing some hard times for those wondering what happened) I finally pulled myself together and decided to pick it all up again. With 'it' I mean, papercutting, drawing, shadow puppetry and continuing selling my work on Etsy etc.
But also I would love to pickup on old friends again and hopefully make some new friends as well here on DA
When I came back here my ' inbox' was overflowing and I just don't see how I could read, let alone answer, all those messages. So my sincere appoligies for not replying.... However, all new messages will receive a most warm welcome and I'll always try to answer.
I guess, for
Daily Deviation and a small word of thanks...
This is just a small word of thanks to thank ^snocookie05 (http://snocookie05.deviantart.com/) for suggesting one of my shadow puppets for a DD. She really puts a lot of time and energy in participating in Deviant art groups and does a lot to promote the work of other Deviants. These are the kind of people that makes this "online community" so warm and welcome and for that I would like to thank her!
Also I would like to thank all my new watchers and all people who took the the time to comment on my work and for all the favs!
It truly means a lot to me! Though these are busy times for me I will try to pay a visit to every gallery of my new w
Book Update!
It has been a while since I have spoken with you all about the Tell me a story - project. I know some of you might even have had doubts if the book was ever going to be published.
But I can assure you all the book is now almost finnished and we are very close to the publishing date.
I probably don't need to tell you that self-publishing is a lot of work if done properly and of course I wanted to do it properly. That is why I decided not to do it all on my own, instead I have been working with several people: proofreaders, editors and a most talented graphic designer. For the last couple of months we have all been working extremely hard. All
