ART + Sketching and Plein Air Painting
Sketching is one of the things that grounds me and allows me to be present with whatever is in front of me. Watercolor is my favorite approach for its speed, portability and spontaneity. Most of my work is done “plein air” wherever I find something that interests me.
By working outside and honing my observation skills,I feel that this practice makes me more aware of the world and how light and shadow interact with it. I also find that sketching is another way to connect with others and even bridge the gap across cultures and languages. I have had the opportunity to visit and sketch in many amazing locales around the world and people always seem interested in seeing how I observe the place in my sketchbook.
