Moleskine is the favored notebook brand for creatives around the world, and the company's newest series, The Art Collection, gives those creatives deftly designed products tailored to their individual needs. The collection is inspired by different forms of artistry, and there's a book for every type of creator within the realm of fine arts.
There are five different notebooks in The Art Collection. The most recognizable of those is the Sketchbook, which comes in various sizes and weights but is essentially designed for all-purpose sketching. The products get more specific, though, with the Japanese Album folding out like an accordion to allow for wide or tall sketching and the Watercolor Album designed with pages that can handle damp brushstrokes. Further, the Music Notebook has musical staves on its pages and the Storyboard Notebook has cells for blocking out on-screen action.
