I went to figure drawing the other day. I’m finding I like the ballpoint pen best.

A few weeks ago I joined a figure drawing session at Beachkraft Gallery in Olney. It was nice to put time aside to draw in such a laid back setting. Here's a little bit of what I did.

I had a great night celebrating Sandy Spring Friends School. So miraculous and wonderful that it was saved from closing. I was honored that my former history teacher, Bob Hoch, wanted a photo with me in front of my drawing “Summer Camp”. What a great night :)

I did a series of portraits of friends and family with hot drinks during 2020. I hoped that the images would be comforting. This particular painting is of my friend Mary.

Linger here and reflect on those lost to violence. Hope for a more peaceful world. Seek a reverence for life among all people.

A couple of the signs are up around silver spring. I’m happy that someone went through the trouble of putting them up. They are a reminder that many people are thinking about their communities right now.

This is a drawing I did in my drawing 2 class in college. I was just at the greenhouse this is from last weekend so it was fun to dig it up and see the colors are still bright.

I’ve been working on this painting for a bit. I wanted to show my progress before I take a break. My time out west was inspiring and I hope to do more paintings about it.

Yosemite was one of the stops on our trip. Beautiful redwoods and waterfalls. I also always like sunlight in the afternoon.

I went to White Sands and Death Valley on my trip. Who knew how amazing deserts could be. I really liked learning about water sources in them.

I did this sketch in my parents’ garden. Everything is blooming now that we’re in spring. I am enjoying being outside more.
