My New Moleskine

Half of my next paintings are going to depict stacks of Moleskine notebooks. Additionally, I am planning on making some works on paper to go along with them. In the past, I have pretty much only worked in my notebooks (Holbein spiral multimedia sketchbooks)—the exception being the white chalk on black paper drawings. So when I received an email advertisement from Moleskine about new products, among them larger books for sketching and watercolors—A4 (8.33 X 11.7″) and A3 (11.7 X 16.5″), I ordered the A3. It is large enough to make 9 X 16 inch works on them. Now all I need is a comically large pen (feather?) with which write at the cafe.
