Sketches

These works start in motion. A street corner passed by too quickly, a roofline caught out of the corner of the eye, a moment of rest before moving forward once more. Each hand sketched, pigment washed piece is a one-of-one, built from loose lines and pastel memory—simple marks capturing the brief clarity travel so often offers.

The process is immediate: a gesture pulled from passing architecture, a shadow shifting across stone, a figure pausing before disappearing back into the crowd. Color settles in quiet gradients; line breaks, reconnects, wanders. There is no time to overwork, to overthink. Nothing is fixed, forced. The pieces hold a moment exactly as it arrived, and left.

Together, these experiences form a record of temporary places and temporary calm—small works that breathe assuredly within the frenetic pace of the world outside the studio. These are beginnings, waypoints, the quick notes that make the bigger pieces possible. Are you ready to take inspiration home?
