O all you who walk by on the road, pay attention and see if there be any sorrow like my sorrow.

“O all you who walk by on the road, pay attention and see if there be any sorrow like my sorrow.” The other day after ICEC I was walking on the amazing Charles Bridge in Prague. This scene really captured my heart during this Lenten season. I seemed to be the only one that stopped to take it in. Note the words on the pedestal.

Sketching Jan Hus in Old Town Square Prague

I had just a bit of time in the Old Town Square in Prague to make a sketch of the man, Jan Hus. More information here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Hus_Memorial

Prague Charles Bridge Sketch

When you are in Prague there are simply too many good things to sketch. It was very cold so I had to sketch outside fast and then do the ink later. 

Jan Hus - Old City Square

This was fun to draw. I was trying to capture the imposing statue of Jan Hus in the middle of the bustling Old City Square of Prague.


Jan Hus, the reformer, was burn at the stake for his faith. The city of Prague honors him with a very prominent statue in the heart of their city.

A conference doodle

This sketch was done at a conference held at the Marriott in Prague. Readers of this blog will know that I like to doodle during meetings. It seriously helps me to concentrate on the speaker. I listen better.
I kinda liked this doodle on the hotel notepad. This is a sketch of the church towers in the Old City Square in Prague (from memory).

Sketching in Prague, CZ

It was an amazing warm day in the center of Prague. Perfect for sketching. I was trying to capture the imposing statue of Jan Hus (the reformer who was burned at the stake for his faith) in the center of the Old Town Square.


Can you see the Hus statue in the center?

Prague Trio

This was a fun quick sketch to do. I was scrolling through old digital pics yesterday from Prague, CZ. This was an awesome little trio. They were performing on the street out in the cold.
I did this sketch on a scrap piece of graph paper.
