Welcome! The sketches in this gallery were created on planes and ferry boats, in bars, markets and churches - either from life as it was happening or from a quick snapshot I took. Glimpse the apartment I rented in Rome or the view from it’s rooftop. Check out one of the Tour de France when it came through a village where I lived in the South of France. How about a Scottish Manor or a disco performance? My latest series has been of buildings in the historic town of Custer, South Dakota. For me, there is a story in each sketch. I hope you have as much fun looking at them as I did creating them. — Mixed media — charcoal, graphite, ink, marker, gouache, watercolor - Some framed original pieces and prints available.

I sat and sketched this on the cement floor of a vineyard in Napa wine country.
“Hacienda del Sol Wedding”
I parked myself on this bench at Pleasant Beach during the Winslow Paint-out competition 2019. I was annoyed when this guy came and stood right in front of me and now I can’t imagine this sketch working without him. I was thrilled when it sold at the reception that evening.
It was a perfect fall day to sketch at the vineyards, pet the draft horses and sip on some yummy organic wine.
