Drawing from the traditional Irish session last night at Nod hill brewery. #irish #trad #nodhillbrewery #ridgefield #connecticut

Did some drawing in downtown Westport yesterday. I need to work on my stamina, I’ll blame the heat. I did manage get a quick drawing of a busker playing accordion.

It was raining today so I did my drawing from the car. Not exactly an architectural masterpiece but a scene many of us are familiar with #thisisamerica

I don’t think my drawings will ever end up in museums, perhaps the value in them for me is the process of actually making them. Meditating on ordinary objects and scenes a little bit of time. (Approval of strangers on the internet helps too!)

Going through my archives I found this piece I had made a long time ago. It brings me back to a time and a place.

I love when people get excited about something. Even if it’s something that I’m not into, I’m just happy for their excitement

People who openly hate on others having fun are extremely wack. (Even if their fun is being a hater)
