View post →As Despina mentioned in her post from Tuesday, a group of us spent a delicious few hours at the Society of Illustrators, drawing the fashions of Scooter LaForge. What a fun night, and a great designer! Arielle and Sailor Moon did a wonderful job modeling. Thanks to Bil Donovan for hosting. This is Sailor Moon in […]
View post →Rush hour in Amsterdam. It’s true, people on bicycles are as thick at rush hour as people in cars are here in NYC. If only the Citibike plan actually worked, I could be making this drawing on the corner of 1st Ave and 14th St., instead of having to fly across the Atlantic to make it. […]

View post →You think I’m kidding? There he is. Was drawing the St. Patty’s Day parade on Tuesday, when I saw a real, live, leprechaun. Now I’m a believer. posted by Veronica see more parade drawings on my blog, here
View post →It is always interesting to me to see the different personalities that rocks can take on, in different parts of the world. This painting reminds me of both a peaceful moment and a bittersweet memory. Funny how art made on location can carry so many thoughts and feelings. posted by Veronica

View post →As Despina pointed out so beautifully on Tuesday, this past weekend we were at Mystic Seaport with the Dalvero Academy. The seaport was so beautiful in the snow on Sunday, and it was so dreamlike to see the masts of the Charles W. Morgan, anchored at Chubb’s Wharf, peeking over the tops of the trees and […]
View post →I love parades. I love drawing them: So much excitement and fun, since there is usually great music involved. Dancing and drawing simultaneously is just about the best high I can imagine. Anyway, this is a drawing I made of a parade in MGM studios in DisneyWorld when I was a student, about a hundred […]

View post →I love drawing musician, especially jazz musicians. They get so lost in their music, the same way I get lost in the drawing. It’s a totally simpatico experience! Posted by Veronica
View post →I freely admit, I have a love/hate relationship with Chicago. Great city, great people, great architecture. So what’s the problem? It’s cold in Chicago. I mean, REALLY COLD! The “windy city” is so aptly named it’s amazing. I actually had to hold on to a street light to keep myself from being blown down the block like […]
View post →The Cook Islands is beyond any experience of rural I have ever had. There are two buses on this island: clockwise and counter-clockwise. Brilliant. posted by Veronica
View post →Fall is long gone, but I thought it might be nice to remember the feeling in this watercolor made at the Central Park boathouse. posted by Veronica
View post →When visiting Amsterdam for the first time last August with my husband Neil, I thought that looking for windmills would be asking too much. And yet, there is was! The fact that it was pouring rain at the time did not deter my excitement at making this drawing of what, to me, is a quintessential […]
