Branching Out - Notes from German Expressionism at MoMA
The Sketchbook Challenge for April is "branching out" and I definitely added another way of sketching in my watercolor journal during this time.
I went back to the German Expressionism exhibit at MoMA on Monday, and took notes and made some drawings from the Bridge and Blue Rider artists - while listening to a Gallery Conversation by a MoMA employee. I usually don't take notes and make small drawings in my watercolor sketchbook, but wanted to remember some of the images from the woodcuts and other prints he was discussing.

Definitely a creative way to remember things, by drawing them out! I love doing that too ^^ but of course, in engineering classes, drawing things out is hardly any fun and requires a fast hand, I guess it's still a good exercise

I love this - German Expressionist drawings have always been among my very favorite pieces of art.

loved your newest entries, particularly the Central Park sketches and the portraits.
I am going out to experiment with my new watercolor pencils.
