Lakeside Coffee House

When I scheduled a meetup a few months ago at Lakeside I envisioned sitting outside on the terrace sketching the lake. I still sketched the lake, but I was sipping hot coffee from the inside. It was a chilly, rainy day in Madison, WI

That didn't keep 8 sketchers from drawing the afternoon of May 19. There is a lot of good variety to choose from, window light and some mighty good coffee and food.

What's not to like?

Next up is my annual trip to UW Memorial Union. Let's take advantage of outside while we can.

Stay Creative,
Ruth

Brasserie V Drink & Draw May 8th

Gretchen, Carolyn and I enjoyed drinking and drawing at Brasserie V tonight.  It was busy but we got a table with no problem.  Nice place to hang out on a rainy night and good company.
