SOME MORE OLD sketches discovered recently while going through “my drawers.” The memories are so much more vivid than those I have from photos taken over the years. Maybe because I spent more time on each of these — although some, obviously, didn’t take more than ten minutes. If you need me, you might find me sitting on the Paseo — with my sketchbook.

ALGUNOS ANTIGUOS DIBUJOS descubiertos recientemente mientras revisaba “mis cajones”. Los recuerdos son mucho más vívidos que los que tengo de las fotos haciendo a lo largo de los años. Tal vez porque pasé más tiempo en cada uno de estos, aunque algunos, obviamente, no tomaron más de diez minutos. Si me necesitas, puedes encontrarme sentado en el Paseo, con mi cuaderno de bocetos.
Cape Cod, Massachusetts, 1980. La playa era popular por el lanzamiento de pequeñas embarcaciones a motor, por lo que los humos eran desagradables. Pero mis amigos y yo estábamos colgados y no teníamos ganas de conducir más.
En esa misma playa de Cape Cod. La perra, Sarah, de una amiga Gwen. Sarah fue adoptada en Indiana, y Gwen estaba convencida de que ella era parte coyote.
Diciembre de 1980. Esperando a que mi padre me recoja en Llegadas de Eastern Shuttle en el aeropuerto Laguardia en Nueva York.
Mayo de 1980. Violeta africana en el apartamento de mi amiga Mary en Boston.
Agosto de 1980. Boceto de un póster para el Museo de Ciencias de Boston.
1975. El modelo llegó tarde para el clase de dibujo de la figura. Entonces dibujamos a otro estudiante.
En el apartamento de un amigo en Boston. Porque estaba ahí …
Really like these! The Cape Cod bring back a few memories for me as well.
Happy you are sketching.
Jim:
I do love the Cape… and sketching.
Yes, what Jim said!!!
The Cape is our fave place so next year we will try to get there again.
Your sketching!!!
What can I say ~ more!
You get the prize for best blog title as well as the delightful art! Keep on drawing.
Susan:
Thanks and OK, I will!
Love your blog title today as I watch coyotes mosey pass my windows along with other wild critters.
Wonderful drawings I need to start again, I miss it

Parsnip:
I forgot how relaxing and satisfying… and stimulating… it can be.
interesting selections – animals, people, plants, fish. colored pencil or watercolor for the African violet?
anne marie:
The African violet was done first in pen and ink and then, because I thought it sucked, I added color using felt-tipped watercolor markers.
I’m readying myself of Ptown now. I would love to see what drawing subject would inspire you to draw there. Do you still sketch?
Mistress Maddie:
These old sketchbook posts have been all about my starting up again. Interestingly, anything inspires me.
You know, I admire a person who can draw a stick person, even! Mine come out looking like a failed geometry lesson. These are gorgeous! You can draw people, places and things equally well! I really like the ladies at the airport one. Keep drawing just for the sheer joy of it.
Deedles:
Jerry especially loves the Easter Shuttle drawing. We had it framed for years and noticed it was fading to invisible before we moved to Spain. I scanned it and have tried to “restore” it a bit.
Excellent sketches. Thank you for sharing them with us.
Love,
Janie
Janie:
Thanks for the compliment and the thanks!
They call him Flipper, Flipper, faster than lightning…
Walt the Fourth:
And you do know I had to run through the entire song in my head!
A day at the beach sounds wonderful this morning.
David:
Something I’ve begun to take for granted.
Maybe it’s because I’m about to go to work, but that Cape Cod one looks particularly inviting right now.
Kirk:
I live on the beach and it even looks inviting to me. What a place!
