I love my moleskine sketchbook: the smooth, thick, yellowish paper is a divine surface for sketching, blending, and erasing.
Not every image from my sketchbook evolves into a highly refined full-scale drawing ~ some stay tucked away inside my little black book. A few I will share.
This is a very small size* (for me) - around 5 x 7 inches - but it is not a difficult transition to create very tiny drawings - there is something looser, more graceful in tiny drawings that do not demand a lot of space.
The medium is pencil on paper (of course!).

*I just noticed that the Moleskine website has a larger folio size sketchbook that I will, coincidentally, be ordering within the hour (hooray!).
