JAPANESE CRAB APPLE TREE, LINDA

FORT LEWIS COLLEGE, DURANGO, CO

It was wonderful sketching today at Brittingham Boathouse...along with the canoers, kayakers, paddle boards, boaters and those just enjoying the sunny warm weather on the shoreline.  The staff were happy we choose to sketch there and invited us back.  There were seven of us sketching with Draw Madison: Betty, Dina, Deborah, Gretchen,  Vickie, Dan and Louise.

Paoli - Sketch Meet July 13th

Lovely day in Paoli and great to meet Gerrardine and Dan.  The Exquisite Corpse show in the Cooler at Artisan Gallery was really outstanding.  Unfortunately Zazen Gallery was closed so could not see Jan Norstetter's new still life show but what we could see through the window looked beautiful.  After 3pm Gretchen and I went up Observatory Rd. and painted for a couple hours.  Very breezy and great clouds passing over.

Pope Farm Conservancy

These are 2 pastels painted in the evening at Pope Farm Conservancy.  (On Old Sauk Rd. just west of Madison). One was painted a couple months ago and the other earlier this week. It's a nice place to paint even when the sunflowers aren't blooming.

These are teaching gardens for the  Horticulture Dept. at UW Madison and are also open to the public. The house on the grounds is referred to as The Fred House or Dean's House.  Today it is used for offices for the Agricultural Research Station.  It was a lovely day to get out and sketch.  Draw Madison included Elsie, Betty, Louisa, Vicky & Louise.  This sketch is by Louise...
