5×7 sketching 50lb sketch pad is an active flowers sketchbook. Updates to this page occur as the sketch pad evolves. I move forward fearlessly with my creative journey into smaller formats and mixed media with this thin paper pad. My life drawing, collage, and other sketchbooks can be found at this link on my home page. 

Flowers and spirals are the obvious initiators of this sketchpad. I began drawing in this pad in 2022. Work here is not exempt from inspired use in a collage.

Stamp pads, alcohol inks, Prismacolor markers, Derwent pastel pencils, and Prismacolor Nu Pastel chalks were used to create the variety of images.  Montana acrylic markers were also included. Monoprint techniques were utilized with alcohol inks for some images
