a week in the life...





a daily starbuck sketche.  done quickly, in

stealth so no one feels uncomfortable.  my goal is to

capture the character with as few lines as possible.






a sketch while watching the godfather.  thus, the quote

'get rid of the bodies'





life drawing drop in. one day i hope to draw 

so the body does not look so stiff!








homework from life drawing class at 

otis college---one page of seven 



and lastly, are a few images from this quirky exhibit at 

the el segundo museum of art











los ángeles is experiencing rain!!  it is such a rare occurrence, 

that i want to sand outside, look up at the sky and thank

mother nature.



i am linking with paint party friday as i do (almost) weekly.




thank you for visiting today.
wishing you a lovely weekend.
tgif!!!

  3. Your sketching looks great, I always wanted to be able to do that. I'm too captured in details to do it.
