Man with Hair Parted Down the Middle Eating and Working His Phone
This is a better color experiment than yesterday’s. I also made use of the trough between the two sketchbook pages. I made it correspond with the part of the gentleman’s hair.

Coloring Adventure’s First Big Mistake
I am getting ready to add color to my sketches. The other day I added watercolor to my sketch of the backyard. Aside from the resulting water-curled pages, the experiment was successful. After I sketched the man at the table (see below), I used Copic markers to add color. I read that Copic markers are […]
Tutor and Child
This is one of the first portrait-formatted, double-paged notebook sketches I drew in my 5×8 Moleskin journal.

These folks were together.
Business Training Session
I was thinking about the role coffee shops played in the development of art and artists: Coffeehouses were a staple of folk musicians in the US in the 1960s; Café Guerbois , in Paris, was a meeting place of such artists as Paul Cézanne, Édouard Manet, Camille Pissarro and other Impressionists: The Cedar Tavern, in New York City […]
