Last November, my wife and I had a little weekend getaway on Shelter Island, which is a small island just north of East Hampton, NY, on Long Island. While there, I began this ink wash piece of Albert Einstein. Ironically, this was created within miles of where Einstein spent a number of summers.
However, that piece of information never crossed my mind until just this moment, as I was trying to think of something interesting to write. On that note, here's the work:
I plan to add quite a bit more contrast and depth to it, and I'm hoping that by posting it, I'll force myself to commit to completing it!
I hope you have a nice weekend!
Best,
Rich

Hey Rich,
This sketch is looking very cool.
The fact that you were inspired to draw Einstein within miles of where he had lived is extra interesting, specially since you hadn't made the connection at the time.
till next time.
