studio sketchbooks and dogs
I’ve posted in this blog about my “running around loose sketchbooks” – sketchbooks that I carry with me and record my observations of daily life. My studio sketchbooks are a different breed. In these I’m using my imagination – like what is in “Dogs by Sue Clancy” https://store.bookbaby.com/book/Dogs-By-Sue-Clancy I make it a regular habit to play with my…

musical dog art
Getting a few questions about my new artist book “Dogs by Sue Clancy” – https://store.bookbaby.com/book/Dogs-By-Sue-Clancy – one of the questions: “Where do you get your ideas, that ‘something pleasant’ you speak of?” While I’m living my ordinary life I make notes and drawings in my sketchbook of everything pleasant that I experience.

I’ve been purposefully spending time enjoying something and making notes and in the process I created an art exhibit’s worth of…

Doing some sketching on location for 2 different projects; one is a fine art commission project that has water and a sailboat in it (and a dog!). The other is a possible new artist book (maybe ebook?) that I spoke of in this “alive and sketching” post. Anyway… here are today’s sketchbook pages …

coffee book featured in Colorado
My artist book “Coffee Beans Plus H2o” is featured at the Abecedarian Gallery in Colorado! I’ve loved it that the gallery owner and some other artist’s who’ve commented privately have “gotten it” that in this book I was playing with a concept of time!
