Additional Information

The cover of this A4 landscape sketchbook features a detail from Eileen Agar’s painting, The Autobiography of an Embryo, 1933-4.

Let Agar’s ‘celebration of life’ inspire you to fill all 25 blank pages of heavyweight 220gsm all media cartridge paper. Acid free, it’s great for sketching or painting – with the paper adjusted to be extra strong when used with wet materials.

The sketchbook measures 21 x 29.7 cm, making it large enough for detailed drawings and paintings, but small enough to fit in a tote bag and take out and about.

About the artist

Eileen Agar (1899 – 1991) was a British artist, working across a variety of media, including sculpture, painting, collage and photography. In the 1930s she was part of a community of prominent artists, and a member of the London Group from 1934 onwards. Although she resisted the title, Agar was one of the leading figures of British Surrealism, and one of the few women whose works were exhibited in the seminal London International Surrealist Exhibition, 1936, at the recommendation of fellow artist Paul Nash.
