The noise out the window told a tale of greater chaos than I first expected. Warnings of severe winds and the side effects of Tropical Storm Isaias had been steady all morning. As with all such moments, there is nothing to fear until it happens. The winds blew threw and suddenly the neighborhood was brought […]

I spent the better part of the weekend trying to resolve an old drawing. My patience as the years go by certainly grows. I look back on sketchbooks from one day of my life a decade and a half ago and wonder how I tried to get so much done. Then I start to see […]

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

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

Not sure if these two will become a part of the adventure but it was to draw none the less.—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

I hadn’t come prepared for the theme of the night, but when two people at the bar were playing chess and the music filling the room was resonating out hymns of kings and queens I quickly realized that the act before me was several moves ahead of me. Arielle and Brendan produced a full set […]

Each weekend Studio 1482 will be featuring posts from the One Drawing A Day archives. Today’s post is by Dominick Santise, from back in 2016. It’s titled “Into the Crowd.” #ODADarchive Another Florida drawing from years back. I still remember my first time drawing down at the Magic Kingdom. The smells, the crowds—the newness of it […]

It’s titled “Drawing Friends” #ODADarchive Another drawing from years ago in the Magic Kingdom (Mickey has been on my mind lately). Another reminder of things that have changed. Change is always […]

Spent the day last Saturday drawing with half of my 1482 compatriots. The studio turned into a mythical land where creatures roamed and faun’s and minotaur’s played. A little fantasy never hurts. If only cupid had payed a visit.—Dominick

Yesterday I watched as the school kids, softball teams, marching bands, politicians, and cultural organizations walked in our towns yearly parade of spirit. Mixed in, and new to this years procession, was a local group fighting for their voices to be heard. Right or wrong, without speaking, they made more of an impression on the crowds gathered for our city’s annual celebration […]

Another drawing—missed when I was thumbing through last week—from the lost book. I remember doing the drawing, who I was with, and while not of great importance just thinking I should—never knowing that the location would be changed and that the drawing would mean a little more for reasons only some will understand. I went […]
View post →For a few moments on Saturday morning I thought the predictions were being proven wrong, that the path of the storm had pushed north and that I would finally see the ground covered with snow. But the blizzard like scene lasted only minutes and sure enough stalled to a slow and steady dusting. And a […]
View post →Oddly enough, the one thing I dreaded about making the cross country trip in January was the possibility of missing a snow storm. I am one of the vocal few who love winter, love the snow, love the cold. Yes, I said love. Don’t curse me out. I don’t do the Calvin snow dance—at least […]
View post →Recently at the ICA in Boston I got to watch a beautiful dance troupe (they were all quite beautiful) perform live with the Boston harbor as backdrop. Unfortunately I can’t remember the names and details at the moment but when I get a chance I’ll post more drawings and info on my blog: www.despinageorgiadis.com
