Please know, however, that 2012 fixes will not happen until the rest of the 2012 books are scanned in for the first time. We promise to work through the books as quickly as possible, and thank you for your patience! All 2012 sketchbooks that are slated to be digitized will be done befor the tour leaves Brooklyn in May.

Information about UPLOADING ARTWORK & artist portfolios:You are able to upload self-scanned images of your Sketchbooks & other Art House projects through your user page on our site, by clicking the "Artwork" tab.
Non-project work is no longer able to be added to your page, as we are in the process of phasing out this aspect of the site. We want to showcase project work exclusively, and focus on that which brings us to together as a community! If you have artwork currently uploaded to your artist profile, you may want to find a new home for it as all non-project artwork will be deleted from the site in spring 2012.
