Collage sketchbook by Clover Robin

Illustrator Clover Robin is no stranger to Brown Paper Bag. I was first wowed by her last year when I found that she chronicled her travels using collage—while on the road! Since then, I've been following her work as she fills her sketchbook pages with more cut paper goodness. Clover writes that she "delights in nature and all things botanical," and is "inspired by a childhood of woodland walks and countryside rambles." As such, her illustrations often feature quaint homes and beautiful blooms that utilize a bevy of color and texture. Although they're abstract, Clover arranges the brush strokes, splatters, and colors to build form. The result is both structured with a sense of spontaneity and freedom—sort of like being outdoors.

To see what Clover is currently cutting, be sure to follow her on Instagram.  She's one of my favorite sketchbook artists to follow.

Clover Robin creates illustrations inspired by "woodland walks and countryside rambles." They give her sketchbook ideas that lead to charming collages.
