And next week couldn’t be any further away. Oh what a difference a day can make.—Dominick
View post →I stopped trying to hide the fact that I am drawing. I’ve been doing it for years now on my routine trips that I feel like I should put out a cup. Or at least wear a sign with this blog name on it. Sometimes I’ll get engaged in some discussion when I get off […]
View post →The last patch of color I saw before getting on the train this morning. Oh how I wish I had a snow day too. —Dominick
View post →Can’t help but miss everything about this town. The streets, the food, the people (like this fellow passenger on the Lexington line), there is no place like New York and no place like the Upper East Side. —Dominick
View post →Still thinking about the west coast. Lots of reminders these days. —Dominick
View post →A quick drawing while out in LA two weeks ago, I spent a happy night having Mexican food with Schwartzy and Pagana. They have been on a self-imposed hiatus but I was told over queso, chorizo, and chips that this was the year of Schwartzy and Pagana. I was honored to be at one of […]
View post →Spent the week traveling to, attending a movie opening (Raze, not for the weak of stomach or heart) & hanging out in, and trying to leave Los Angeles (had my flight cancelled by Jet Blue). Still working as if it’s Monday. More drawings from the trip to come. —Dominick
View post →Our early start from Amarillo was delayed when we turned the corner and spotted this old Ford. Shenanigans ensued. Very nice gentleman allowed us on his property to get another view. It was his neighbors truck. —Dominick
View post →A day or so in, 2014 so far has gotten off to a slow start. Not being one for resolutions I haven’t properly planned. Like Janus I revel in the turning of time. However, looking forward I long for a slightly different view. It is changing rapidly, but in first view the old hang around […]
View post →Can’t say I wasn’t extremely happy to see the snow start falling on Tuesday night. As we drove to make our rounds yesterday the cold air had held the snow to the branches. This morning, a little more before the clouds parted. Winter is upon us.—Dominick
View post →Seriously, when did December arrive? And how is it Thursday already? For those those taking part in the coming holy day, I hope you are all finding a little peace as you scurry about. For those of you just waiting for it to pass, thank you for bearing with us crazy folk for a little […]
View post →Winter is just days away now, much to the dismay of many here in the North East. I however revel in it. I always have. The first snow, the bitter cold winds. Yes, I may very well be insane, but there is something just invigorating to me about a cold winter day. Still autumn, but […]
View post →One last tree still pretending that autumn is not coming to a close. In all fairness it has been mild compared to last week and the fog did obscure the other trees. Maybe someone should tell the leaves to go.—Dominick FREE BOOK GIVEAWAY! In our new Facebook group, One Watercolor A Day, (view it HERE) […]
View post →A slightly new take on an old standby. Hope you all enjoy the day. Feeling grateful for what I have, and thinking of those who are less fortunate. —Dominick FREE BOOK GIVEAWAY! In our new Facebook group, One Watercolor A Day, (view it HERE) we’ll be encouraging readers to follow along with the exercises on […]
View post →Obviously my past few posts have been leading up to a month of watercolors. For the fun of it I am going to try and do one watercolor a day and post them on my personal blog. I’ll post them before next Thursday when I am up again. And after a little hiatus we have […]
View post →Another quick watercolor of the autumn landscape. Every year brings a different burst of color. Usually with it being so dry as it was in the North East the colors are so vibrant. Not sure what caused such color this year.—Dominick
View post →I never really got the whole idea of leaf peepers, but then again I have always lived in a pretty magical spot. The Hudson Valley is beautiful this time of year and continues into early December with some random vibrant spots. Maybe not worthy of a weekend trip, but certainly worth watching for as you […]
View post →OK, no where near Toledo, I don’t think, (sorry Toledo, my geography stinks if I haven’t actually visited) but rather Pennsylvania and it wasn’t actually over, it was while driving through. I hadn’t been on a road trip in a long time. I forgot how long PA was, and how beautiful the landscape was (Brandywine […]
View post →I won’t call the weekend in Chicago an escape, but to clear the entire agenda and only fill it with drawing is something that even on the best days in New York seems near impossible. On our way back we turned south and made a detour in Pittsburgh for the night. As we packed up […]
View post →Drove out to Chicago two weeks ago for the Workbook Creative Carnival. Had a blast drawing around town with Greg soaking up as much as we could see in a few days. Check out some more of the drawings I did while finally getting to visit this beautiful. A trip not to be missed.—Dominick
