Art House Co-Op project!!

I sign up for a Art House Co-op project with the Brooklyn Library. They send me this little Moleskine sketchbook with a bar code on it ... Oooh will take a picture of the bar code next time ... anyhow ... long story short ... the theme of this month is "This is Where I Live." I will need to fill in the sketchbook with drawings and then ship it back to them, and then the little sketchbook will become a permanent collection of the Brooklyn Art Library where anyone can look through the pages of the sketchbook! I miss out their big sketchbook project, so very excited that they have a little mini sketchbook!!

OK!! This is the very beginning of my sketchbook ... hopefully I will fill up the sketchbook and complete the project!! I will try to do more line drawings in this book as well ... cause I don't think this tiny little Moleskine can handle too much watercolor paper. LOL YUP!! I am going to glue some watercolor pages in it eventually ...

The sketchbook is the same length as my pen!! So tiny!! How cute!!

This top piece is a quicky on-location drawing demo for a outdoor drawing workshop at the university.
