1111 Lincoln Road, South Beach Miami, FL, U.S.A.

1111 Lincoln Road, South Beach Miami, FL, U.S.A. It's an amazing building with a lot of cool things to discover. If any one goes to Miami it is a must see type of deal. Yeah it is a parking garage but it feels like a cathedral/sky park. It's the best way to view the city from above and there are parties that take place in here. Check it out.....

The Capitol

The Capitol, from the U.S. Botanic Gardens.  I went in to the District to see the Roy Lichtenstein Retrospective at the National Gallery, and felt motivated to walk around a bit afterwards to see if I could find something to sketch.  While I was sketching I met an Italian painter who was here on vacation, and had arrived in New York just in time for the hurricane.  Not the best introduction to our country - but he sounded like he was having a good time anyway.  He showed me some of his own sketches as well, which were quite good.

Marilyn

Marilyn Monroe Mural The classic Woodley Park mural. Commissioned (in either 1968, or 1981) by Roi Barnard of Salon Roi, and painted by John Bailey. I thought it could use a little love in ink on paper.
