Sketchtravel is an artistic journey unlike any other. No editorial project has ever before brought together as many visual artists around a common object. Passed between 70+ artists (see list below) over 5 years and across over 35,000 miles, the Sketchtravel sketchbook showcases the creativity of artists in numerous disciplines from around the world. Illustrators, animators, painters, and more each illustrated a page with their unique style before passing the book to the next artist. Reflecting a who's who of popular contemporary artists, this imaginative diverse collection of artwork will inspire art lovers with its scope, diversity, and beauty, much as it did each artist who contributed a link in its chain.

Initiated by illustrators Dice Tsutsumi (Japan) and Gerald Guerlais (France), the project culminated in an auction of the original book in Brussels in 2011. Proceeds from the auction and royalties from the book's publication were donated to the international literacy non-profit, Room to Read.
