Come with me as we travel by train along vineyards of Tuscany. Or, join me in an adventure to the Siberian Arctic. Can you sense the cold and the bleakness of the land? I will take you to Africa to see the customs and culture of the Kipsigiis people. Look over my shoulder as I remember people and places far away.

Not all the sketches are from luxurious vacations. Rather, they were created while working on humanitarian projects abroad. I tried to chronicle these experiences through my art, which in turn, was a release from the pressures of my work.

Do you have a story to tell, a trip to take? Why not create your own sketchbook? It is easier than you think. Click on Watercolor Journeys below to get started on your own artistic "journey."
