My Sketchbook

As a freelance artist and educator, I sometimes have long periods of down time.  I use it to continue to create items for sale but also to sketch.  My sketchbooks are full of doodles, portraits, & biology studies.  When looking for sketchbooks, I don't usually have any specifications.  Sometimes I prefer brown paper, sometimes white. Usually I lean more toward thick paper, but so long as I can write on it, I'm usually not too picky. As a result, I don't have a favorite brand & my shelves are filled with a mishmash of sketchbook sizes, colors, & types.  By far, two of my favorite things to sketch are my family & plants.
