Complete List of 50 Art Scroll Locations in The Plucky Squire

The first art scroll is located early in the game. After Violet joins Jot on their journey to Tome Tower, look for it behind a tree and some bushes in the middle of the next page.
After completing the gate puzzle, you will encounter Martina the vendor for the first time. You will need to purchase the next art scroll from her. IMPORTANT: You must buy each art scroll as soon as they become available. For instance, Martina won’t sell a Chapter 1 art scroll again when met in Chapter 9. Each scroll costs 20 idea lightbulbs, so ensure you have at least that many for when you next see Martina.
In Chapter 2, after descending the cliff and avoiding the boulders, you can find the art scroll hidden behind trees at the upper part of the page with the red bull.

The next art scroll can be purchased from the vendor upon encountering Martina once more.
