It really has. I've just dug them out and put them in my bag so whenever I have 5 mins or am stuck somewhere, I can ditch the mind-numbing scrolling and open my little art book. Thank you.

Beautiful drawings and photos here. You have inspired me to pick up my pad and pen again.

Years ago I flew from California to Boston because Harvard was exhibiting their Rothko murals for the first time in decades. Around the same time I traveled to Dallas to see a Van Gogh exhibit at the modern art museum. It was the only museum in the US to display that show.

I’ve definitely made stops on vacations to draw or research! I really like getting the sense of a place.

As someone who gets to experience vacations with a writer/artist spouse, one thing that I love is that I get to tap into my creative side too. Fun for the whole family! (If they’re game, of course).
