I embarked on The Sketchbook Project because I really like the idea of artists all over the world giving their sketchbooks to be kept in a library, for anyone to look at. I chose the theme "Travel With Me", not because I'm going to actually travel anywhere, but because I consider wherever I am to be a stop on a journey, a place where I suddenly notice something beautiful or interesting, and feel the urge to make a drawing, a painting, or a photograph. I like the idea of carrying this little book around with me (something I've often done anyway), so that when I get that urge, I make the sketch, and later, people will be able to travel with me on my little journeys around my world.

Oak leaf from my neighborhood, 10/18/11
Sometimes my "travels" are walks around my neighborhood. I picked up this oak leaf, but didn't see the tree it came from. It must have blown over from another yard.
