Blue Bird Chat Sketchbook

Overview

Catalog your artistic expressionism in this naturalistic sketchbook from artist Lindsay Neilson. Designed exclusively for Barnes & Noble for the Back-to-Campus collection, this hardcover sketchbook depicts partridges proudly perched atop rustic brown tree branches, all set upon a powder-blue background and accentuated with touches of spot varnish for added texture and contrast. Make your own unique designs come alive on each of the 96 blank sheets complete with perforated edges and a ribbon bookmark so you never lose your place.

This item is part of a unique product development partnership with student artists from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). Working with SCAD’s Working Class Studio, Barnes & Noble has produced an exclusive “Back-to-Campus Collection” consisting of nine journals, two pencil pouches, a sketchbook, and a canvas messenger bag decorated with student-designed contemporary graphics.

Working Class Studio is a product development venture of the Savannah College of Art and Design. Each academic quarter, students are selected as interns to form an interdisciplinary design team led by studio directors. The studio manufactures a line of products based on the team's market research and designs which are then sold nationwide. This innovative concept for an educational institution marries function and fine art to deliver a well-curated mix of cutting-edge design.

The SCAD Back-to-Campus Collection features colorful and graphically striking contemporary artwork in bold designs that will inspire young minds to explore their creativity. Prices are from $6.95 to $16.95 for a range of stationery and gift products. Available exclusively in the gift departments of Barnes & Noble stores nationwide, Barnes & Noble College Bookstores, and Barnes & Noble.com.
