Honestly not sure how I ended up here today. Dredging of a canal, literally and figuratively. The end of July, July will always be France, though there are much cooler times to visit, maybe April. The piles stack up, but lately I find them needing more attention. Let’s see where this ride takes me.—Dominick

A little late but didn’t want to miss another week. In the midst of a busy work schedule I had a moment to run over to the Society of Illustrators to draw. Forgot it was burlesque night until I arrived. Fun Coney Island mermaid meets Disney’s Under the Sea creations.—Dominick

Found a stack of sketches from a few years ago that I didn’t remember making. The project has always stayed close to my board, but these were an unexpected memory.—Dominick

I pulled a little sketchbook out today and saw how much time had passed. The notes and thoughts in this book are timeless, but I know exactly when and where I was when I made them. The old saying, the more you learn the less you know has never proven more true as I read […]

Found an older drawing in the flat files and took a liking to it. Trying to remember who, what, where, or when it was done.—Dominick

Late as always, but this was sitting in my scanner so I figured I would put it up.—Dominick

My trip to Philly didn’t exactly coincide with the next stop on the Mark Lanegan tour, but I figured I would post one more in honor of last weeks great show at Warsaw in Brooklyn.—Dominick

I had the great pleasure of seeing Mark Lanegan tonight at Warsaw in Brooklyn. The one artist I would travel to great lengths to see. Possibly one of the best shows I have seem him give, and over the years I have seen a few.—Dominick

One of my favorite posters in the past ten years, nothing sums up that you are never just passing through than a reminder that you might drive differently if you lived on the very street you were so eagerly trying to get across. Safe biking to all those who are already enjoying the beautiful Spring […]

As I watched the horror unfold yesterday, each second smoke poured from the roof of the cathedral I worried about the loss of even the tiniest piece of history. As the fire raged on I feared the worst like so many others. It wasn’t sinking in just yet. It couldn’t be as bad as it […]

Had the opportunity to draw the wonderful Allyssa Jill at the Society of Illustrators as she wore designs by Shawna Wu.—Dominick

On our quest for enlightenment at Columbia University a few weeks ago my wife and I had the opportunity to listen to several great speakers hosted by Teachers College. It is rare that I am led through a day with little agenda other than to accompany my partner in life. I had no idea what we […]

Palette and brushes in hand, there sat Leonardo with his muse. —Dominick

Long, long ago, in another life, I fantasized of attending Columbia University to pursue a writing career. It took art school years later for me to realize how many books I had overlooked in my pursuit of this dream. I have tried to catch up over time, and I have certainly been known to write […]

Peas, carrots, apples, tomato, basil—the list goes on. Everything but the kitchen sink, but I guess the plates go in there after the meal. Designs for ceramic plates form a few years ago.—Dominick

Staring at the first version of the right hand piece on the floor in the studio I realized there was more to this project than I remembered. Maybe a good springtime venture.—Dominick

A long time ago, in a land down yonder river, I started an adventure with a knight. It follows me wherever I go and recently appeared right before my eyes. Tales of long ago, and not so long ago as well, flooded back. Maybe the snow moon will bring along some new directions. —Dominick

It was like Narnia outside today, yet no Turkish Delight to be found. Lots of ice and no time to play. I keep telling myself the next time it snows I am taking a snow day, but something always comes up. Maybe next time. What did that woodchuck see last week anyway? —Dominick

From the Society of Illustrators last week. Amaya modeling for Sketch Night.—Dominick
