In my drawing graveyard there is a couple dozen sketchbooks and (if stacked) a 5 foot tall pile of loose paper.
Sketchbooks are useful to me when travelling, they keep everything thing neat and in chronological order, but beyond that I like the idea of a sketchbook more than the reality.
When I start a sketchbook it's usually a belaboured drawing that sets a standard I feel obliged to live up to, and that can turn into a creative constraint.
If I really want to explore or experiment, I feel a lot more freedom with loose sheets of paper that I can crumple up and chuck across the room if the drawing isn't turning out.
