“I still remember when I first discovered Moleskine, using it to record my sketches, watercolors, doodles, ideas, moments and inspirations the summer before my 2nd year of college. Since then, I’ve had a Moleskine for every occasion…

They traveled with me to New Zealand, Fiji, Vietnam and Scotland, helping me record histories of people and places I’ve visited through charcoal, conte, sumi ink, pen and pencil. Anything that may be of use - quotes, sketches I do myself, a piece of an advertisement, movie ticket stub, a professional artists signature, sketches, watercolors, doodles, ideas, moments and inspirations are all collected within my Moleskine. While I generally stick with the pocket sketchbooks, for my Wing Chun gung fu classes, I record lectures, technique and theory in the large-ruled notebooks, currently filling two.

The Moleskine books are key components to every part of my day. They hold an elegance of antiquity with the sophistication of modernity, becoming as important to the artist as the medium.”
