Memories of people and travel, captured on diary moleskine sketchbook.

The following was on one of Artist Sim Sim's posts on her social media page:

"This past 2 years have been really hard for me to travel and take my own references. I tried to study as much image as I can that makes me feels something.

My work revolves a lot about memories and nostalgia. That’s why I’m such a lover of sketchbook, it feels like an album memory, a journal for me.
Polaroids has also been an huge part of my study lately, maybe I’ll post some of them in a future."

Taking photos is of course a fantastic way of capturing a moment, but drawing it, etches it in your mind. Plus, you still have the charcoal hard copy to show others.

    I take my little 3x5” sketchbook with me everywhere. What I find ultra difficult and frustrating is trying to capture a portrait in a very short time span. For years I’ve traditionally sketched people in a waiting room or the design of the room that I’m in. In most portraits, I snap a pic and draw from it.
    What is your normal process?
