New Sketchbook

I bought a new sketchook the other day. I was actually going to the store to get supplies to bind a new book and saw this. It has such an interesting cover and different (for me) thick paper with wonderfully deckled edges. Plus its a new format. SO, why not give it a try. Picts are: 1. The outside , pages are 6" x 9" +/- cover a bit larger 2. First page is always my favorite. Palette testing. I added a few to the tiny travel pallette i nade from an antique eyeglass case purchased during the lisbon symposium. 3. And the last image is my first sketch in the book. It will take some time to get used to the new fiberous paper. But i am intrigued. THat's it for now. Planning on getting some good sketching in this weekend is the weather holds :)
This is just one from the last few weeks. I have been beter about updated my flickr account than the blog lately. http://www.flickr.com/photos/broadhurststreet/ More to come
