So in the spirit of drawings, Studio 1482 has switched gears two weeks into their One Drawing A Day project and created a separate website to host the daily drawings.

A Drawing of My Abuelo

Picasso Museum

Saturday, June 13th, 2009

A trip to Paris is never short of wonder. There’s no other place like it, the shops, the history, the food, THE ART! Here’s a drawing I made in the Musee National Picasso during a trip abroad traveling with my associates at 1482. Spending the day with Picasso’s lifework (in awe, I might add) was truly [...]
