Sketching Tokyo Russell Stutler was born in Japan, but raised in America. Living in Tokyo with his wife and family, he documents every day scenes and people with a lively penstroke and quick brush.

Ever since I was in high school in the early '70s and saw a television program on the life of Leonardo Da Vinci, I have had a passion for sketching. I usually sketch in pen and ink or pencil, although lately I have been sketching mainly with...

A solo exhibition in San Francisco in 1936 elevated him to...

American A gifted watercolorist, Rex Brandt hailed from San Diego, California. A year before graduation from UC Berkley in 1936, his influential work was recognized by the publishers of Who's Who and the International Index of Artists. Brandt was part of a regional group of like-minded artists enchanted with the unique light, color and landscape of southern California. Together in 1937 they formed a traveling group exhibition called "The California Group." The group introduced America to the exuberance, color and creativity of this new rogue band of western watercolor painters. Among Brandt's friends in this "en plein air" group of...

Thomas Moran - an American painter and printmaker "Thomas Moran was born in Lancashire, England, and, with his family, moved to the U.S. in 1844. Inspired to paint by his older brother, Moran studied privately in Philadelphia before returning to England for further study. While abroad, Moran was influenced by the hugely successful J.M.W. Turner, and Moran set about copying the master’s moody, atmospheric works. Returning to the U.S., Moran made painting expeditions to the monuments of the American West, first to Yellowstone, then continuing to the Grand Canyon and Yosemite. The finely executed panoramas from these treks won Moran...

American Reginald Marsh is best known for his paintings of New York City daily life: burlesque shows, Coney Island, the Bowery, movie houses, and elevated trains. His favorite resource was Coney Island, where he would rapidly fill sketchbooks with drawings of the bathers in all postures and positions.

He graduated Yale University in 1920 and moved to New York where he worked as an illustrator for...
