L train to Bedford Ave. Hello Sketchbook crew!
Thank you for participating in this year's Project. We are absolutely overwhelmed by the incredible response - it's an honor to kick off the 2011 Sketchbook Project Tour this weekend!
To accommodate everyone at the exhibition here in New York, we are expanding our opening at the Brooklyn Art Library. Please join us anytime on Saturday from noon until 10pm and on Sunday from noon until 8pm. And please note: we'll be welcoming visitors to the Library every day except for Mondays until February 27, so feel free to visit over the next two weeks and experience this year's incredible work in a more relaxed setting.
For complete tour dates and other info, please visit our website. And stay tuned for the launch of the digital library, coming later this spring!
Thanks again for all of your wonderful sketchbooks. We couldn't have done it without you. We'll see you at the Library or out on the road! www.arthousecoop.com/
The Sketchbook Project.

- "Members Of The Band"
- "Thinking About Something"
Along with 28,837 other artists, I took part in this project, although only about one third or slightly less than 10,000 sketch books were returned for the tour. Even so a massive organizational challenge. The opening is this weekend. If you can't make it to Williamsburg, Brooklyn, in the next two weeks you can still see it online. Since I almost never draw faces or people I chose "Face In A Crowd" for my theme and it was so much fun. For more information please click here http://thesketchbookproject.com
The Beginning Of The End - finally a little thawing.
Last week we chose "Thaw" for our Landscape class topic and happily the weather even cooperated a little. Watercolor, 12 x 16".
Winter At The Beach.
Yet another snow scene. I don't think I have ever painted so many in just one Winter.
Extreme Weather
A quick study for my Monday Landscape Class. Heavy snow and more on the way.
Wintery Mix
Ice, snow and rain meant no class this past Tuesday. No fun being out but rather nice to paint.
Hares, as in "Hare today, gone tomorrow."
What to do when one's flight is cancelled and one faces a four day delay? If you are in Bristol, visiting family, (lucky me) one possible answer is to head to the Natural History section of the local museum and draw. Of course a Hare is not a rabbit but perhaps one can always use a little leeway.
Belatedly, Happy New Year.
2011 is "The Year Of The Rabbit" according to the Japanese so here is a rabbit to wish you "Happy New Ear".
A Partridge In A Pear Tree
For our last week of class, Klimpt meets Matisse and who can ever have enough gold?
