Starting in on sketches for the Red Wolf Project by Champions for Wildlife. Red wolves are the most endangered species in the U.S.; there are only 300 left in the wild. This is the 1st T-shirt design for fundraising. #redwolfproject #championsforwildlife #wolfsketch #catherinetwomey1

A special delivery from my next door neighbor, age 11, that I give art dates to. The whale! The bird! The stumpy tree! What's not to like? So precious and so real - just the way I like people.
Art Makes the World Go Round!
in abstraction, animal, gallery, gallery art, sketch
What a year! I remember talking to my sis in February; wondering if we were going to have to cancel a trip to Scotland due to some strange virus. Well, we did, like everyone else. In the meantime, however, we learned to live with it and I painted and sold more paintings than I ever have - along the way finding that I'm pretty much a contemporary Impressionist-type painter. That alone was worth it! Thanks to everyone for your support, your kindness and here's to hoping 2021 is a banner year in so many ways.

Japan, 1980 - An Artist's Tour
TBT in 1980 I spent time in Japan working on my thesis about Japanese art and Japan's National Treasures, also known as master artists. I just rediscovered this sketchbook from then; traveling around Tokyo, Izo, Kyoto, etc. with my handy marker pen. This is the Kanjiro Kawaii House where we slept on tatami mats and had a zen moment. Japanese art & design has greatly influenced my own work; who'd a thought this would reappear with all the memories it brings?

Value Sketch, Near Sarasota
Robinson Preserve, near Sarasota, Sunday, January 7, about 2:00 pm.
Having a wonderful time getting back to some value work. This preserve was stunning; took a walk for about an hour and saw herons, egrets and mangroves. Faber Castell pastel pencils on a grey paper sketchbook.
