bearded men & some sketches

I’m sitting here @ Gypsy in Cleveland, filtering through some old portraits…. and enjoyed these two.
Maybe it’s the fact that they are such dear souls. Perhaps.

Andrew; May 2009; hometown of Charleston, West Virginia

Nate; October 2008; traveling mate in South Africa

I’ve also been journaling without many words lately… just sketching. These are a few from the past couple weeks.
I’ve been branching out a bit using watercolor and calligraphy along with the ink pens, which I’ve enjoyed thoroughly. Nothing fancy.



Only 2 more days here in Cleveland. Flying to Richmond for the night Tuesday, and onto/into the Blue Ridge Mountains of VA!

We Are Not Machines

we are human [ m i n d b o d y s p i r i t ]
Intricately connected, unable to be separated.

read over again the chapter ‘health is membership’ from the art of the commonplace (wendell berry). a favorite.
this photograph came to mind –

took it last month.
