Sketchbook? Journal? Can't draw?

WHO CARES!!!

Everyone's got a digital camera now... We're pretty used to ourselves and friends coming home with 300+ photos on their 8 GB sim card (at least)... then on the computer... 4 million places to remember their trip... share....

You can do that.... OR you can take a different trip... With your sketchbook ... slowing down... sitting.... looking... finding details on the spot... translating the experience to your own hand... JOURNAL... SKETCHBOOK... call it what you will. You get to sit. Be in the moment. Write... draw... paint.... paste tickets and postcards into a book...

There's ALWAYS HAIKU....
