It’s ocurred to me recently that my collection of past sketchbooks is starting to get pretty old. I’ve used the same type of sketchbook for just over ten years now; about 8.5 x 11 inches, hardcover, perfect bound. The first one I ever got was a Christmas present from my sister, and came from Barnes & Noble, no doubt. I covered it in anime pictures I’d printed out from the internet, and named it Belldandy.
Anyways, I used it a little when I first got it, but I didn’t really start making a conscious effort to carry it around with me regularly until about halfway through my freshman year of high school, which would be late 2000/early 2001.
So the first quarter of the sketchbook now contains drawings that are ten or more years old.
Let’s do this.
