Urban sketching blogs are great, in general, and a finding a really sharp local-ish one is especially fun. Michael Anderson’s Sketching St. Louis is a recent discovery.

Ed Valentine: Untitled at Linda Warren Gallery, until October 22, 2011. Allowing myself to be a little more editorial than usual: I love Valentine’s work because it manages to be a lot of things simultaneously–highly formal, crude, obsessively crafted, whimsical, cool, ugly, a graphic image, and a slow read. Should be a good show!
