peek into my sketchbooks
For years I was frightened and intimidated by sketchbooks. Even after art-making became a regular part of my life I did not work in them. Eventually I overcame my hesitation and now sketchbooks are a big part of my creative life. Part of what helped me embrace sketchbooks was my collaboration with Dana Barbieri.

On my blog I often share my thoughts about keeping a sketchbook.
This is a selection of some of my favorite pages.
sketchbook inspiration
Because of my own struggle with sketchbooks (and the fact that I eventually learned that they're not so scary), I want to share my enthusiasm for the medium and encourage you to embark on your own creative adventures.
2x2 Sketchbook -- a Collaboration with Dana Barbieri
This first collaboration lasted for over a year. We shared our pages weekly on our blogs. In the spring of 2016, our sketchbook project was featured in Uppercase Magazine.
