Finally finished drawings sent to Sarah in Australia. I carried this moleskine around in my backpack for a while, the book got wet in the rain and the pages stained. Hope the moleskines keep circulating, it would be great to do some more.

Is this group planning to exchange!

It appears that the has been no exchanging going on here. Great group of artists. It would be a shame if this exchanged died on the vine. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help this group along.

On your marks, get ready, draw ! ...

.....hi everyone !!!

Just checking if you all have ordered or received your moleskines. As you get your moleskines start drawing everything you want, you must complete a least 3 pages.

Post pics here of the drawing and whatever else you want of the whole process.

Here I post the rotation of the group to be more efficient, if every one agrees...

this would be:


Chensio >>> Nick (usa)

Nick >>> Sarah (australia)

Sarah >>> Yun (taiwan)

Yun >>> Nura (israel)

Nura >>> Juan (spain)

Juan >>> Chensio (spain)



this is going to be the best group ever !!!

Welcome to moly_x_33!

This group, founded by Chensio (España), is an extension of the Moleskine Exchange. This blog will follow the adventure of a group of artists around the world, in a Japanese fold Moleskine sketchbook exchange.

Each artist will set off with a small Japanese (accordian) folded Moleskine. Creating a drawing, collage, or painting, then send on to the next artist. Each artist will draw on a couple of spreads (3-4 pages) then send it on to the next artist. When the artists book is filled, it will be returned to the owner with images created by artist around the world. Each artist has a month to make an entry. The outcome will be a pleasant and surprising adventure, as artists are encouraged to interact and merge their art with others.

The concept:

1. The artists start with the Japanese fold Moleskine - Name, address, email address written in book.

2. Each artist gets 1 month to make a sketchbook entry, and mail it to the next person. The order is listed to the right.

3. Each artist will do 3-4 pages each round.

4. Artists are encouraged to interact with other images in the book. Please be respectful.

5. When the book is full, when one side of the unfolded book is filled, the book will be sent back to its original owner. That artist may continue by buying a new book and sending it to the next person.

6. If a person decides not to continue, she will simply keep her book when it comes back to her. She should email all of the participants to say she is not going to continue. We will decide, then, if we want to find a new person.

7. Please communicate regularly via email. Let each person know that you have received/sent the book. The goal is to have a dialogue. Any comments and questions are welcome.
