Jazz Sketch Night #3

I made it back out to the Society of Illustrators the other night for a little bit of life drawing. It was a good time, especially since Stephen, Angie, and Monika were there. I'd missed them all quite a bit. Here's to making a more regular habit of sketch night.

Jazz Sketch Night #2

Went to sketch night at the Society last night, where I met up with the ever-delightful Stephen Gardner. It was such a treat to kick back and draw and have a beer with my favorite Englishman.

Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground

This is the preliminary drawing for a scratchboard I'll be working on over the weekend. It's a portrait of the band the White Stripes surrounded by birch trees.

I was watching
with one eye on the other side
I had fifteen people telling me to move
I got moving on my mind
I found shelter
In some thoughts turning wheels around
I said 39 times that I love you
to the beauty I had found
The White Stripes, Hotel Yorba

FIT Network Article

I was mentioned in an article in the Spring/Summer 2007 edition of FIT Network, a publication for FIT alumni. It discusses my involvement in a Dante event where I discussed my take on the imagery from the Inferno. My ink sketch for Circle II accompanies the article.

Jazz Sketch Night #1

Last night, I went to the Society for their Jazz Sketch Night for the first time. It was such a good time, and it was great to reconnect with a few buddies from FIT. Shout outs to Steve, Ed, Suzanne, and Scott. It was a lovely evening.
