Dr. Sketchy in Northampton

August 17, 2010 by izzy

Dr Sketchy Noho

I heard there was a Drink and Draw at Hugos or was it the Elevens in Northampton.  Sooooooo, I went out searching last Friday and didn’t find a Drink and Draw.  I did find Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School which was started by Molly Crabapple, who in 2005 dropped out of art school and started the Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School as an alternative drawing movement.  There are now Dr. Sketchy’s in over 100 cities world wide.  Not bad for an art college drop out.

Oh and it turns out The Elevens, in Northampton, have Dr. Sketchy’s night every first Friday of each month starting @ 7pm.  Get your paper and drawing tools……

Rocky Neck State Park

Beach UmbrellasFinally got to the beach over the weekend.  Traveling south then slightly east for about 1 hour and 40 minutes to Rocky Neck State Park, in Lyme, CT.

What a lovely spot, looking out into the Long Island Sound.  The water was clear and the beach a nice sandy white.

Beach Map

I highly recommend this area for either a day on the beach or to go camping.  While we pretty much parked ourselves directly on the beach, hiking and camping were very nearby as well as an estuary and marsh lands.

Now, I just need to finish that book I was reading beach side, before summer is over…..

The Gig Economy

Richard Greenwald says we are now, “living at the dawn of the freelance world, as more and more people find themselves working as consultants, contract workers or freelancers. This change in the way we work is as profound as the shift that occurred during the Industrial Revolution.”

Having been an on and off freelancer, since 1985….I of course, side with the freelancers and have to say….this is not just the dawn of the freelancers….it IS the Dawning of the Age of the Freelancers.
