I think sketching has helped me to to notice the world around me. I have walked past this pillar every day for two years and didn’t notice it until last week. I find myself taking in more of my surroundings now that I’m always looking for things to draw. I feel so much more of a sense of beauty about the place I live and appreciate it more. There’s so many wonderful little spots that are hidden in plain view all around us, if only we take the time to see them.

This is on the back of the old city hall.
Sakura koi watercolors, Blackwing 602 pencil and a Sailor brushpen with Noodler’s eternal black ink.




I love this one. Great dynamics.
Squigglies are fun. This page is really just a bunch of them.
