This is just a sketch book. I would not wait the Moleskine I ordered:)) THis sketch book is good for practicing. Although I have to say these pages will not be destroyed. I'll keep this sketchbook as an art journal. Watch the video here under to see what I created up to now!!!
The pages are kind of thin. But I adhere old newspaper or other paper to the pages. Then I add gesso to the pages and I am ready to go: draw, paint, use prismacolor pencils and so on.... Hey, that is called mixed media, yeahhhh!
No courage yet to draw arms or hands, hehehe ... funny, but no ugly arms or hands for me:)
I am waiting for my Moleskine art journal. So what you see here are my first official trials. Love to do it and play with alll kinds of mediums. The freedom to play with whatever glue, paper, paint, pencils, markers, drawings, book, embellishment is immense. Just mix your mediums = mixed media. You should try it!
you definitely have drawing talent... don't give up. I am a mixed media artist, and I struggle with the same feelings of doubt about my abilities. I could not draw a near true to life hand or foot to save my life, but I have learned that it doesn't matter if I am technically trained. thing is, creating art is fun, therapeutic, and rewarding in so many ways if you are open to it. good luck with your art journal.
