Wednesday the 22nd of October
We moved into the workshop space, the court room was too cold. So if you come in just go thru the double yellow doors if the lights are off in the court room.

Another beautiful night on the square at the Old Court House along with great company for a night of drawing with a wonderful model.
Thank you for posing, as we all know it is not easy all the time.

About 6 of us went to see Richard Schmid's presentation in Lake Forest, part of a fundraiser for a Visiting Arts Program for the inner city of Chicago.
A very inspiring afternoon to say the least.
I bought a few books to inspire and to study from as did everyone else.

Nancy Guzik's work is fabulous and she also worked in the animation world as did I... further inspiration for me.
All in all a great afternoon with great people and inspiration being doled out by the handsful -- really great people willing to share ther lives with us.
Thank You to all.
Have a good week. May you be safe, happy and healthy
And be creative in all that you do.
Peace

The 8th of October
A beautiful evening on the Woodstock Square
Good drawing , good model and good friends
Sorry that I got a little behind on my post.
I would like to thank Nanette Garcia for taking photographs this evening as I left my camera behind
A very special thank you to everyone for helping set up and tear down.
Very special thank you to Jean Sanno for helping me close, I would probably still be in the building as we speak or should I say read, without your help.
Be safe and happy
Peace

The 15th of October.
We had a very special evening of drawing and painting with great friends, great model and a lovely cool fall evening.
Our model played live music while he posed for us.
Nothing better than live music as you will see in how he inspired us to new levels.
Thank You so very much for the lovely evening, to our model and all who participated, truly an inspiring night.
As you all know we have been locking the doors at 6:45, if you are late just call me and I will let you in.
See some of you Sunday in Lake Forest
Have a safe and productive week
Peace
