A peek into a sketchbook
Between painting and full drawings, I sketch a lot and have sketchbooks scattered all over the house, including beside my bed. I also carry one in my handbag and have one tucked in a drawer at work.
Sketches can be from life, from memories, from illustrations or magazines or photos that I see. As long as it keeps me drawing, that's all that counts.
I enjoy looking back at sketchbooks and reliving memories and seeing people that I have sketched. The pile of books rapidly accumulates and is added to with scraps of paper that I sometimes end up drawing on when there isn't a sketchbook immediately to hand.

I wouldn't call that bud a sketch. Looks more like a finished piece :) very nice line work.
These are so beautiful. I love looking at other people's sketchbooks. I'm always buying second-hand sketchbooks of artists like Delacroix, and I can sit and look through them for hours on end. Lovely!
your lines are so delicate and lovely...i bet you have a wonderful collection of sketchbooks! im inspired and hope to start sketching more myself...and maybe even posting them :) thanks for sharing!
