Wonderful post and sketch! i love seeing what tools other people consider essential and how they tote them about. I started going back through your posts to see how you put your kit together and was captured by the Bible verses included in each sketch. I ended up wandering through the lot- what wonderful sketches and such a lovely expression of faith!!

Wonderful sketch! Have fun on the trip!!

Absolutely love the colors! That's a good way of tagging everything too and perhaps a reference for yourself and anyone who wants to pack as nicely and beautifully as the drawing. =)

I can't wait to see your sketches. I really like the sketch of your supplies. Really well done.

Looks wonderful, no matter how "rushed" you say it is ;)
I love your style, it's playful and realistic at the same time. I actually loved your pictures even before I became member of EDM and saw your blog (since I saw one of your pictures in the flickr-group "What I ate today" or so).
Have a lot of fun! I'm looking forward to seeing the results here! :)

Good choices! Have a wonderful time and come back...

Great idea w/the verses. I have a separate moly for verses/journal that I don't draw in, but I like the way you integrate them.

Thanks Jan and Matthew – I totally agree with the problem of having the one subject dominating too much - often for me it is large area of text...so I like Matthew’s rule of a sketch on every page..which is something I am trying to do. I dedicate the back pages of my book to the to-do and shopping lists (with decorating sketches of course)
BTW I am absolutely loving adding more sketches to my work moleskine notebook... So now I have only 2 – A personal sketchbook and a work notebook/sketchbook – both full of sketches and text....

2010-02-28T11:42:13.695-08:00

Good question! I love to try out new types of sketchbooks, but I'm not as productive as a lot of the people whose sketching work I see online - it can take me quite a while to fill a sketchbook. So I had too many books in-progress ... and they were different types of books - large or small, watercolor paper or ordinary paper, etc. I also had a basic sketchbook that I was using to take notes and make to-do lists. I couldn't carry all these books around with me in case I wanted to use one - and that was keeping me from sketching/writing. So I resolved to start a new book that would be a journal/notebook/sketchbook all in one place. I'm using a hand.book brand sketchbook, which has very versatile paper (not as heavy as the Moleskine watercolor books but still able to take washes), and my one rule is that every page must contain at least one sketch. I'm just 15 pages into it, but already I love having everything in one place!!

2010-02-28T05:07:23.064-08:00

I am so amazed at how much you can pack in a day's worth of sketching, Liz! They are so fluid, as if you captured the scene in mere minutes. What a wonderful day you must have all had!

I really liked your contribution to the sketch exercise! great colors and the 'awful' sketch inverted was a great idea...i was drawn in by the color and detail and angles.
