Drawing on Beckett


I bought a mini-sketchbook the other day on my way out to Pocket Utopia. The sketchbook is small enough to fit in the pocket of my jacket and I can leave the book bag with all its papers, pencils and newspaper clippings at home for a while and enjoy small drawing and the fulfillment that comes with traveling light.

So last night while waiting on line to see Baryshnikov play Beckett, I pulled out a mini-ruler and lined my way through a few pages. After the play, I went home and got in bed and finished a few more pages in a post-Beckett glow.
