Really longing to get out and draw—large crowds. Not going to happen anytime soon but feeling my way around what is possible. This old abstract crowd brought me some joy and hope. A little play to get the thoughts moving.—Dominick

Part of staying close to home has been the realization that so much happens when you aren’t really paying attention. The number of bird calls I have discovered echoing through my neighborhood grows by the day. I also have noticed, just like watching a pot boil, that one should NOT watch grass grow. Nothing happens […]

Having a bit of tea lately. Morning, afternoon, evening. A spot of tea served from the local tea trolly with a bit of conversation.—Dominick

It’s funny the number of times in a given week you can jokingly say, “let me check my calendar” knowing there is barely anything on said calendar and yet somehow the weeks fly by in our current state of life with little room for relaxation. Every move requires plan. So before the next storm takes […]

It is hard to know what day of the week it is when the world outside keeps spinning but life has taken a different pace. I wish I could still climb a tree like I once did, but short of that I can give a little encouragement to those who didn’t think they could get […]

When I was a kid I would love it when the candles were lit during a power outage—wrapping up in a blanket, thinking I would stay up as late as could be even though the sun went down between 4:30 and 5:00 PM and night came upon us before the evening news would have. In […]

If all goes well, and I self isolate, I will not see who this was originally intended for. I will not see the nurses, doctors, healthcare professionals, EMTs, police officers, firefighters, and the many other front line responders whose chosen professions are to help us. THEY CHOSE A PROFESSION TO HELP. A thought I can […]

Tuesday’s have always been an off day for me. Even in quarantine I find I am just not myself on Tuesday’s. Hence why so many posts are late in the day—or sometimes never arrive. There is a never ending list of reasons why the day takes a turn. Maybe it’s because I never had […]

Somehow even with the extra day February is all but a memory. Aside for the lack of snow, the year has started off on the right foot or should I say opposite hand, and I have been drawing and thinking, thinking and drawing, whenever I can. —Dominick

Certain elements seem to pop up when you need them most, or maybe you just weren’t ready to see them until the right moment. No matter what, pay attention to everything.—Dominick

It is impossible to fit into a few short lines what an afternoon experience means when you have longed to make said experience happen as far back as the moment it was announced. Looking through a few very old sketchbooks today, I realized that the past week has been an abrupt and very direct reminder […]

Hello Mountain and Pacific time zones. Spent the entire day looking through archives and never looked up to check out what time it was. Marg has already posted but I am going to slip this in and see if anyone noticed. —Dominick

Been drawing since the new year, and working on various projects. More to share as the days come but for now another drawing from last week.—Dominick

I don’t typically do resolutions, but there are few things that fell off the board this year that I would like to make sure I stick to. As I look ahead I wish you all a Happy New Year and hope that our paths cross in the best of ways.—Dominick

Not sure if she saw me drawing her or not but it certainly feels that way looking at the image.—Dominick

Can we do that daylights saving thing again. Yes, it is actually saving, savings. I was informed of that this week. Anyway, every time I feel like I am taking a few steps forward I find myself asleep. On Sunday that was great because I woke up early, sort of, but not tonight. All sorts […]

Not really, just taking stock and working on some old projects. Found this from a few years ago. Quick study of an autumnal tree.—Dominick

I lie, it was a big drawing. One that I needed to scan in several parts. Wish I had brought a smaller pad. Who knew that could really be a thing.—Dominick
