About this eBook

In the Survivor Guide by Carlos Simpson, the author shares some of his raw ideas and thoughts using a wide variety of techniques ranging from pencil drawings to watercolour, collage to coloured pencils, to pen and ink, handwriting, colours, photography, symbols, and information that we use every day.

This sketchbook by Carlos Simpson explores the individual in a social, cultural, and political context.

As a specialist communicator and an image-maker, I always start my first idea on a blank page which can be found always in my sketchbook.
