Sketchbook

In this gallery, I share some pages from different sketchbooks that I am working in. I love looking through other artists' sketchbooks, so I thought that maybe others find it interesting as well to see a little bit of the planning, experimenting, and thought process that happens in my sketchbooks.

Sometimes I prefer to paint my sketches on separate paper that I then glue into my sketchbook. This is composition study for an idea for a oil painting.
