One of the things that I loved about Strasbourg were the roof tops. My sketch books tell a picture story. I use them as a starting point for my artwork. My small bag contains;1 legendary Moleskine watercolour notebook
1 small traveling Windsor & Newton watercolour paint box
Pencils & Micron Pens
1 container for holding water w/lid.
My traveling sketchbook helps me to "look" and to really appreciate the sights around me and the ability to take time and sketch what I see. Simply sketching with a black micron in a black bound mole skin sketch book takes me traveling - even when the trip is over and I am back home. Do you travel with a journal or a sketchbook? Try it and you will be amazed at how much joy it will bring you. Besides, I always meet people who tell me "Oh, I can't even draw a stick figure" - and I reply, "Well, I am so glad that I inspired you to start today!" I always tell my children or students that I teach art to, "getting started is half the battle, so start now!"
