I'd never even heard of a Moleskine® a couple years ago, but while exploring wonderful artist blogs I kept coming across the reference and found out they were these cool sketchbooks that people were using. I checked out the manufacturer and liked what I read, so to Amazon.ca I went in search of a Moleskine® of my own. This is the classic large watercolour sketchbook and I hope I'll be brave enough to actually make a mark in it. lol As previously revealed in my post Craving Paper, I do love paper and as pictured below, books too! But, holding a beautiful Moleskine® and reading through all these wonderful art books does not make me an artist. I have to actually create some art. Wish me luck.

Ooooo - exciting! You just have to view it as total play and put NO pressure on yourself!
OOh, great minds think alike!! I just did the same thing on Amazon.ca!! I'm in Nanaimo BC, where do you hail from in our lovely Canada?

Love your art, saw a piece you did on Inspiration Avenue (I'm a member)
What art books are your favorite?

I love moleskine books - my favourite regulars have been the A5 lined & the large watercolour. I think you'll like working on the good quality paper. Just go for it and don't be afraid to make a mess. And enjoy all those fab books to inspire you. 'Creative Paint Workshop' is a good one that I have but the others all have me intrigued.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with it!
