[@agold1702]

Love this. I appreciate you sharing your thinking process as you work. You make it look so easy and it’s NOT!

[@JaredCullum]

Thank you. That is true. I have had a lot of practice. It never really gets easier either, at least for me it hasn’t :) but that should be a comfort to just enjoy the process :) thank you for watching

Ahhhhhh!!!!! That was awesome Jared. I am plein air'ing here on the east coast for the first time. Central Park in New York City. My bus went thru Pittsburg, and you have a beautiful city with lovely architecture. Hope to one day return and take on this beautiful observatory. God Bless. You did an awesome job and Thank you so much for sharing and taken the time for an excellent delivery

oh my god, how did you cut an entire block of arches in half that cleanly hahaha that's amazing

[@JaredCullum]

I did. Haha it’s actually not hard. You just have to be patient. Set the ruler and the exacto and just gentle make about 100 passes and eventually you get through. I make sketchbooks that way out of 10x14 or 12x16 pads. Cut it in half and get it bound.

@@JaredCullum ah, that makes sense. I was imagining a table saw or something hahaha
