Meet the Sketcher: Susan Ford

Sibley Volcanic Preserve

With the exception of the company of my dog, sketching around town used to be a solitary experience, until someone turned me on to the Urban Sketchers. Sketching is even more fun when you do it with others.

I also enjoy hiking and sketching with other plein air painting groups. There are so many beautiful places to discover in Northern California.

Lately I've been making a series of bird portraits, at once anthropomorphic and realistic.
