Chapter 2: Have Fun and Keep It Simple > Open Page Format - Pg. 26

Open Page Format Scatter quick sketches all over the page, without confining them to drawn borders. Some of your sketches may overlap others. Draw some subjects close up and some from far away. There is no need for perspective consistency in the open page style. It all adds to the fun. Draw for enjoyment! I promise you will never forget the place or subject you stop for just one minute to draw. Take Your Sketchbook Out for Dinner These one minute drawings were done in the open page style. I wanted to record each course of a memorable lunch at L'Aubergade Restaurant in the Dordogne region of France. Starting with the first course in the upper left corner, I drew with a Pigma Micron .35mm marker pen in my Aquabee 9" × 12" (23cm × 30cm) journal. I had to draw fast before eating each dish!
