SFMOMA is a unique museum of art within a special city. Sometimes the manner and passion that people look and enjoy art is as interesting as the art itself. Join this adventure by making this book your own.

I fell in love with this museum following its expansion and quickly joined its membership even though I lived a couple of hours to the south. It became a sanctuary for this writer/artist. My hope is that this book will allow you to carry some of its inspiration with you.

As a Journal/Coloring Book:

Not only am I not opposed to you turning this book over to a child or the kid in you, I would find it endearing that these drawings would inspire you to play with adding color. My paintings and even my writing, often start with the black and white of a sketch. In case you haven't heard, coloring books for adults are becoming quite a passion. Perhaps our ever-complicated world and its demands on our attention are fueling this trend. I think that we all wish that we had more time for reading. For many, perhaps a little coloring can still feed a passion for getting into a book and more easily allow the satisfaction of finishing something. Why settle for a computer created coloring book when you can add life to images created as a celebration of human richness? Families could find this book as a source for good conversation. How we all interact with each other is not only interesting, discussing this could be educational.

Not only is this book designed to be fun as a coloring book, it is also laid out in a journal format. By leaving you a blank page with each drawing, the idea is you can add your own thoughts, ideas and images. Why settle for a blank book to keep track of life when you can associate your thoughts with an image--a sketch that you can also add your own color to? The idea is that this is a book that you can make your own.
