Missouri-River,-near-St.-Louis,-MO

I was in Saint Louis, MO a couple of weeks ago and had a little time before my flight back to LA. I found a place where I could walk down to the Missouri River west of town and I had just enough time to record this sketch as I sat under a big two direction highway bridge. The noise of the traffic was above and the peaceful powerful river in front of me was like another world.

Seaside-HIghland-Games,-Ventura,-CA

Drum Major at the Seaside HIghland games. A wonderful day of bagpipes, athletic competition, herding dogs and carnival food.

As soon as I got home, I ordered a Clan Mackay t-shirt on line. This was a little line sketch from my new WC Moleskine sketchbook.

Ipanema-Beach,-Rio,-Brazil

View west towards Two Brothers standing on Ipanema Beach in Rio de Janiero, Brazil.  I was there last year and the late afternoon light and the exotic view was captivating.

Water color done as a class exercise.
