Two craggy old guys sitting in front of me at the California Watercolor Association meeting tonight. The guy didn’t really have writing on his neck but it was a good spot to take down notes on upcoming watercolor shows to enter. It was an interesting meeting: Golden Acrylics had a representative demonstrating and teaching about the use of their paints and mediums with a free goody bag for everyone at the end of the meeting.
Two lovely young ladies at a meeting at work today (though my drawing doesn’t do them justice). The meeting was to envision where our organization will be in 2012 (five years) and where we’ll be–if still there, in what role, or doing something else. It’s great to get the support to pursue our own dreams as well as to help build and contribute to our organization whose mission is to improve literacy and learning for adolescents.
Two commuters and two babies on BART.
All are ink in Moleskine sketchbook.

I love it. Now this guy will always have notes on the back of his neck. It could be a beginning of a story/book about why information that people write on their bodies. When ever I see someone with Tattoo’s that contain script, I try to figure out what is it that they want to remember or want me to know. Anyway, I love you sketches.

Jana, I love these sketches, they are so full of life. Those two guys on the top just crack me up in their ordinariness.

Joana thanks for your comment!
I use to paint with acrylics on canvas and my measures are usualy under the paintings on cm (centimetres). Sometimes I mix an oil before over my canvas in the way the acrylics move and make creatives shappes. Visit also my draws. I wish you like it too. I love to make them in a gestual moving hand.
