Figure Drawing Session at the Lorton Workhouse Arts Center

Sketches and photos from the 27th Worldwide Sketchcrawl, which was really fun (see the awesome work of fellow sketchers here):

This was my first sketchcrawl - the group had decided to tour DC's Brookland neighborhood, near Catholic University. We convened at the local Metro station, visited a cool main street area, a Franciscan monastery, and Howard Divinity School. I wish I had more to show! For a better representation, see the excellent work of the others in the group.

I felt the need to re-post this after seeing it in this piece from Roger Ebert's Journal: http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2009/08/in_defense_of_armond_white.html.

I started watching this clip he posted and assumed it was going to be something more predictable, depressing, and uh, boring, but it really surprised me and turned out to be beautiful and even fun...now I want to see this movie! This part of the movie really does capture the absurdity and happiness of a good dream. It's from "You, the Living." I also post this as an advertisement for the treasures and fun to be found on Roger Ebert's Journal site: http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/.

Something to chew on...
