When my friend told me there was a sketchbook of James Castle at the Mingei exhibit, SELF-TAUGHT GENIUS – Treasures from the American Folk Art Museum I decided to take a drive to see the show. Unfortunately the museum is closed on Monday but I made a fun morning out of it by sketching the front of the museum. I also got to visit the San Diego Museum of Art. (Balboa Park will be the location of the 3rd Annual West Coast Urban Sketcher Sketch Crawl in August)
