Librarian, runner, baseball and hockey fan, art dabbler, and counter of things. I read a lot. I try to think more than I speak. He/him.
I haven't posted in a while. Here's an oil painting from last night's open figure session. Starting to really enjoy portraiture.
Left the urban out of my urban sketching this afternoon, just for something different.
Second painting class tonight. Didn't get to complete it, but like where it's headed. Really enjoying being in a class again!
That's not Henry Morgan, by the way.
I painted last night! With oils! First time ever - helped that it was monochrome so that my charcoal habits were transferable.
I was anxious for no reason. Thanks for the encouraging words the other day, @CountZero @eylul and @Curator
Slightly terrified about my first painting class tomorrow.
I went to the museum today, intending to sketch for a while. But there was so much to see I couldn't take the time to sit.
Connie sat for me for a few minutes when I got home.
I so want to read this, but I'm already in the middle of another book!
Sometimes I play with #gimp to add myself to old photos or book covers. I... don't know why.
The pier. Again.
A little Independence Day #sketch for the #dailysketchchallenge
(I'm on theme for the first time!)
I'm 0 for 2 on the themes so far this month, but here's a wind-battling sketch under the nearby pier.
This week's home
