Beautiful Staten Island - Sketches Around Town

Welcome, This book is a collection of drawings from my many sketchbooks, which I wanted to publish and dedicate to the borough I love - Beautiful Staten Island. Each sketch in this book was created on location, from life. Location sketches are designed to capture the immediate feeling of the places. The lines are spontaneous and quick. Some drawings were done in color, some in black and white. Materials used were pens, markers, watercolors, and colored pencils. This book is made possible by a DCA Premier Grant from Staten Island Arts, with public funding from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
