You See, Davis
Twenty-four word and image pieces set in the flat university city of Davis, California, from Autumn 2007 to Spring 2008. Monochrome. It could be anywhere, you could be anyone but it’s here, and you’re you, and that’s a coincidence you can be proud of.
Drawn mostly in a small watercolour moleskine, using micron pigma 01/005 or copic 01 multiliner pens, with cotman watercolour wash.
Do not read the words while looking at the pictures.
How to Save the World
This was for the Art-house co-op’s 500 Sketchbook Project. The theme was “How to Save the World”. Their exhibition is in August 2008, in Atlanta. All pictures drawn from around the apartment (with a small excursion across the Atlantic to look out of the window), usually late in the evening while waiting for my baby son to wake up for his bottle.
Mostly copic and micron pigma pens, but no wash.
As far as I’m aware, the world was actually saved. I just don’t know from what.
I Hold My Pen in an Unusual Way
Started in May 2009, finished in September…
Entirely drawn in cobalt copic multiliner, 03 and 01.






I have friends in Davis… a journalist and a lawyer/photographer. It may not be London… but there are worse places!!
I never said it was a bad place, I like Davis, that’s why i live there.
Your sketches are great, and your words are sublime.
