inspiringness

I'm not sure how I originally ran across this book, but it makes me think of Alissa. It's one man's journal of his life in New York City, and the pages are filled with sketches and jottings--all the things I wish I knew how to do. Just flipping through the pages is inspiring, so imagine my delight when I discovered that the author has not only a blog, but a whole Flickr group dedicated to the same concept. Lovely beautiful artistry makes me happy and motivates me to be creative.
