At the New Museum in NYC for the Pawel Althamer’s “Draftmen’s Congress” exhibit with Dalvero Academy yesterday, we had a terrific time! The artist invited people to draw and paint everywhere and anywhere in the gallery space. What fun. Spontaneous drawing at it’s best. Great sense of freedom, it made us feel like kids. […]

Note the use of the thumbnail in the top left corner – design is the […]

She didn’t WANT ice cream, but she didn’t NOT WANT ice cream either. Too many moments of magic for one day…poor little thing. Someone […]
View post →The trifecta at the Met. This was a very avid conversation! I was not close enough to hear the conversation, but the body language was pretty vivid! Very fun to watch and draw! Margaret Hurst
