Urban Observations: Three Points of ViewAn Exhibition by James Nutt, Jim Lammers, and Don Thomas
James Nutt, Jim Lammers, and Don Thomas have chosen a creative pause—an intentional return to sketching, drawing, and painting as a way to see the world more clearly. As Urban Observers, they give themselves permission to slow down, to play, and to truly notice. Through their individual perspectives, they explore the quiet stories found in everyday city life—each capturing moments that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Whether working in bustling streets or quiet corners, these three artists sketch in public, in the moment, and on location. Their styles are distinct, yet their shared curiosity and appreciation for observation unite them. This exhibition invites you to celebrate the art of looking closely, of finding beauty in the ordinary, and of seeing the world through three unique lenses.
Opening Reception:Tuesday, May 13, 2025 | 5–7 PMNorth Gallery, Landmark Center

Sketches of Life Drawing Workshop with Don Thomas
2025-06-05 17:00 - 19:00 | Landmark Center, 75 5th St W, Saint Paul, MN, 55102, United States
This class has reached its enrollment capacity. To sign up for Moment Sketching with Jim Lammers on Saturday, July 5th from 12-2pm, visit https://www.ticketleap.events/tickets/landmarkcenter/moment-sketching-with-jim-lammers
The Sketches of Life Workshop is an invitation to slow down, learn some unique observational skills and try out some easy drawing techniques. The goal of the workshop is to inspire you to go out in public and sketch people in our daily lives.
This is not a portrait class, so please relax. Portrait accuracy is not the goal. And it is not a lesson in ‘State Fair’ caricatures, (which can possibly offend). I hope to teach you the art of anonymous and respectful observation.
We will explore:

Finding & Seeing: Where to look for people to sketch: best places to observe, what is most interesting, compelling and unique about people?
Catch and Release: How to quickly create a gesture drawing and move onto the next page
Visual Notetaking: How to give yourself enough information to finish a drawing later
Faces/Heads: How to draw personality into your sketch
The World in Motion: How to see and capture movement, balance and form in a moving world

This workshop will meet at Landmark Center in Courtroom 326 on the third floor.
All supplies are included, but please bring a chair or stool. The workshop will be heading outside to sketch, so dress accordingly. Please feel free to bring a water bottle and any additional supplies you would like to have!
This workshop is free to attend, but registration is required as spots are limited. Secure your spot here, or call 651-292-3063 to register.
