Big Moleskines
The last few months I've been working
in the "large" moleskines. I bought these before the
really large, folio ones came out. I've started to really like
the watercolor paper. The washes are smooth and the paper is silky.

Three kinds of Moleskines
This year I have been drawing and painting
in tiny and not so tiny books called Moleskines. At first I used
the sketch books with a thick, buff colored paper that takes pencil
and ink well but not watercolor. Adding acrylic flow improver
helps with the watercolor sticking to the paper. The large size
sketch book paper is almost yellow in color. Finally I tried the
watercolor moleskine. I love bright white paper but I don't think
I will use the "tear out" feature. The accordion sketchbook
paper has a slightly different feel but that may just be the batch.
