Sketch365.com is the 365-page sketch gallery of Cojo, Art Juggernaut, (Maxim, Vibe, Rolling Stone) chronicling his yearlong Drawing-A-Day Contemporary Art Experiment of "Rendered Quick Thought" visualized from mind to paper by the artist's hand in 365-fully-rendered-daily-pencil-details.

The experiment began on September 25, 2005 (the artist's 28th birthday) and spanned one year in the life of the
Cojo. Each sketch represents one 365th of the artist's 28th-year-of-life pulled from the ether in the form of 365 fully framable one of a kind 8 1/2" x 11" finished original pencil line-art drawings. These drawings were uploaded fresh each day to Sketch365.com, counting up from 001 to 365 for purchase on a first come first serve basis in a tiered pricing method.

As the sketching portion of the experiment has now concluded the gallery is currently complete and available to collectors, museums, and the casual art appreciator.

Phase two of the experiment has also begun. Copies of the original sketches are currently being divided by the artist by subject, (roughly 36 sketches per subject) compiled, collaged, and adapted into ten giant paint on canvas masterpieces in a series titled
"TEN (S)UBJECTS". These sketches are not only beautiful stand alone fine art pieces, but also are all details the artist is using as rough sketches for the "TEN (S)UBJECTS" paintings.

The finished paintings will then be unveiled sometime in the future at an exclusive VIP Blue Chip Art Collector, Sketch365.com Patron, and Celebrity Studded Invite Only GALA* .

Buying a sketch from the Sketch365 Experiment is essentially buying not only a day of the artist's 28th year of life, but a piece of one of the paintings. These future paintings are currently in their infant stages and progress on these pieces will be chronicled on this site in the months to come.

Thanks for visiting! Good luck!
