Art On The Run

Here you have the first of what I refer to as Art On The Run or drawings created while out and about or traveling; I feel that this will add a new dimension to my blog and give you, my dear readers, more of an insight into my creative process. This particular drawing was created at the request of my friend and fellow artist Christyna McMahon while I was in Southern California visiting family and friends last week. It was the combination of Christyna's request and my recent acquisition of an iPhone that made this possible. Ultimately, the important thing here is the challenge of creating a drawing on the spot wherever I may be and to share it with all the wonderful people that visit my blog from across the globe. I must admit, I really like this idea of creating art on the run; I hope that you like it as well.

Things To Do While Waiting

I pretty much carry my sketchbook everywhere I go; you never know when something interesting is going to pop up in front of you, right? Most of the time I draw people in my sketchbook but every now and then I'll see a piece of scenery that catches my attention. It's rare but it does happen. This little bit of scenery is located outside the office's of the doctor who used to see my mother. It looked too good to pass up so I put it down for posterity in my trusty sketchbook. The original of this drawing has a quote at the top that reads, "Though the course may change sometimes, rivers always reach the sea." It's from Ten Years Gone by Led Zeppelin; at that point in time I was listening to Zeppelin all the time. Pen and ink in Aquabee.
