A long time ago, in a very different land, two worlds came together and a project came out of it. I put it down just before finishing it, for reasons long lost, but have recently looked at it and wondered what would come of it if it were completed. Another project for the months ahead.—Dominick
View post →I have heard all sorts of good and bad for the near balmy weather we have had over the past few days. I keep reaching for the scarf and gloves and leaving them the car. Soon enough it will look and feel like Christmas, even if the day has passed. But somewhere in the horizon I […]
View post →I don’t know why I should be surprised when I see a burst of color along the horizon, I keep waking to sunny days left over from September. These temperatures are not right, but the colors are nice. Funny how a few days of rain will make the next few days that much brighter. Enjoy […]

View post →Not as much of an event as the May Day Protests, but Union Square is always one of the best spots in New York for people watching and of course spending some time drawing. I found myself with a few hours to kill, an unusual event as of late, and nearby one of my favorite […]
View post →It rained much of my time in London, poured many days. So when the sky’s broke and the sun was shining I found myself at the end of the Millennium Bridge with St. Paul’s Cathedral in the background. Didn’t get as many drawings done as I would have liked, but I certainly laid the plans […]
View post →I have these moments every fall—when the sky turns a certain shade of grey as the inherent nature of the book ended seasons mix and daylight recedes in expectation of the coming months—where I find myself looking at the remnants of a great autumnal landscape, thinking the best has passed and the graphic beauty of […]
View post →Last week I posted a watercolor from a year or so ago and it got me started on the series again. Laid up in bed (or rather in a chair) for a few days I gathered my brushes and spent a few hours out of doors. I am not a green person but I kind […]
View post →Another misplaced crowd drawing from the same time period as last weeks. This one of Grand Central from a few years back.—pre-Apple store and Shake Shack. Long before the “Gate of Hell” GCT was where i went to draw as many people as New York had to offer. Always a fun crowd.—Dominick
View post →I have been digging through some old work, hoping to find new work misplaced, and found this “thumbnail” I made a while back. With all the crowds in NYC this week for President Obama’s visit I figured a mass of people made sense. Hoping I missed all the fun on my trip in today.—Dominick
