“The sketch hunter has delightful days of drifting about among people, in and out of the city going anywhere, everywhere. Stopping as long as he likes-no need to reach anypoint, moving in any direction folling the call of intrests. He moves through life as he finds it, not passing negligently the things he loves but stopping to know them, and to note them down in the shorthand of his sketchbook, a box of oils with a few small panels, the fit of his pocket, or  on his drawing pad like any hunter he hits or misses. He is looking for what he loves, he trys to capture if its found anywhere and everywhere. Those who are not hunters do not see things. The hunter is learning to see and understand – to enjoy.”

“Dont Try to paint Good Landscapes, try to paint canvases that will show how interesting landscape looks to you!”

Id like to thank our good pal Zach for making Goleta Painters Dot Com happen!

I am currently studying in NYC and cant wait to be back in goleta painting  the motherland all summer long. I’ll be posting various updates along with my 2 good friends  of  our recent studies. 

Enjoy!
