"Art is never finished, only abandoned" Leonardo DaVinci
Travel and Explore
I keep a sketchbook with me at all times. I sketch, I doodle, I take notes, and I explore. My sketchbooks are a part of who I am. Sometimes they are messy. Sometimes they are neat. I draw in restaurants, on the subway, in parks, and cafes. Wherever I go, you can guarantee, some type of doodle will be done there.

Magnificent fields or IrelandOn a train back from Philly, I sat down next to a very polite individual from the Baltimore area. He was fascinated by the fact that I was painting on a train and he told me how he had just moved into a new place and has no art on the walls yet and that it makes him sad. When he departed in NYC, I gave him this quick little painting and I hope that it will make its way onto his new walls.
Study of one of Dega’s sculptures in Philly. He is one of my favorite artists and inspires me with his ingenuity.
