加利福尼亚州议会大厦的圣诞颂歌
加利福尼亚州，萨克拉门托上周末，我去加利福尼亚州首府萨克拉门托选购圣诞礼物，一路从市中心走到市中心，又一路从市中心走到市中心，最后在国会大厦外画了一幅漂亮的素描，结束了整个下午的行程。这里是加利福尼亚州的治所，[...]
节拍在继续
萨克拉门托，加利福尼亚州。这是The Beat，一家受人喜爱的唱片店，二十年来一直住在萨克拉门托市中心J街和17街的角落里。正是这家唱片店的存在，以及它的大量新的和旧的CD（包括我在英国都没见过的东西），第一次[...] 。
我们要去的地方，不需要 "道路"。
Sacramento, CA: Recently I finally got around to visiting the California Automobile Museum in Sacramento. As someone who likes sketching old cars but rarely sees enough of them, this was a real find, a real ‘can’t believe I hadn’t been here before’ kind of day. There were so many old vehicles there, arranged chronologically, and […]
say hello to my little friends
I have been enjoying this pleasant sunny January weather to get out and draw some more local fire hydrants, the few remaining styles of hydrant in Davis that I haven’t yet drawn. Some of the differences in style are subtle, but there. Only the white one is of the same as a previous style, but […]
萨克拉门托的桥梁
Two bridges across the Sacramento River in Sacramento, California. The I Street Bridge, above, which links to I Street (they really use their imagination when naming things around here don’t they!), is a swivel bridge in that the whole thing rotates when ships need to pass by. I sketched it from the Delta Queen riverboat, […]
留下的东西
我祖父的椅子和他的一些东西。请原谅我的图像质量不好，因为我没有扫描仪，而且没有什么光线可以使用
sketching the river city
A couple of weeks ago I popped across the Causeway to Sacramento, to do some shopping, draw some fire hydrants and meet up with the SF Bay Urban Sketchers for some sketching around old town Sacramento. They had just been to the new Crocker Art Gallery, we all stood by the Sacramento River and sketched […]
漂亮的女孩，漂亮的男孩
I went sketching on a very warm Tuesday in Sacramento, the capital of California. After stopping by the Streets of London pub to watch Brazil play North Korea, I wandered up J Street to the art store, and sketched two of the magnificent old colourful buildings opposite. This stretch of J Street in Midtown Sac […]
萨克拉门托的三幕剧
萨克拉门托在一个星期二。在观看了葡萄牙与象牙海岸的平局后，我乘车穿过堤坝来到首都。K街上色彩斑斓、历史悠久的克雷斯特剧院正要求我写生。这是一座华丽的建筑，于1949年开业（尽管那里从1913年起就有了剧院），我不是一个大[...] 。
松散的车架
Last week, I went to Old Town Sacramento with my good friend from London, and we sketched old trains. Old Sac is a touristy gold-rush cowboy yee-hah type district of California’s capital city, full of saltwater taffy stores, hat shops, colourful saloons and other such places. It’s right by the river, and the great yellow […]
