SATURDAY: Sketch the Gooch!



With apologies, that would be the "Noguchi Museum" in Long Island City.  The Museum houses the artist's life's work in a physical context that he considered essential to his vision.  It's said that the light and construction materials compliment the artists work.  The Noguchi Museum was the first museum in America to be established by a living artist for the display of their work.

Interesting objects in a beautiful space for a day of meditative sketching.
