We were small but mighty at our September sketchcrawl at Belvoir Winery in Liberty! Vicky was the only other sketcher, but we had a wonderful time sketching, sharing art supplies, giving eachother prezzies, exploring, and having a delicious early dinner at
Conrad's before she and Bill set out on their 3-hour drive home. You saw her account in
this post. (I'm a tad slow!)

| There's so MUCH to sketch there, it's hard to know where to begin. |
 |
| Here's Vicky's "studio"... |
 |
| And here's mine...a circular double chaise that had seen better days! I balanced between the slats... |
 |
| Joseph found a perch! |
 |
| This is what I was sketching from the chaise...the ruins of a beautiful old building. The other spread was all done at the main entrance. |
 |
| Bill and Vicky--he's such a patient man! |

Kate...beautiful work with the building!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Dave...it's an amazing old place, once the Odd Fellows home, and at some point a hotel, I'm told. Fun inside and out!
DeleteYou ARE a tad late --- I'd been wondering . . . .
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your sketches. They capture the place so well.
I didn't feel finished with the one of the ruin! We all got hungry before I was quite done--so I tweaked it a bit.
DeleteIt looks finished to me now. So lively for an old forgotten ruin.
DeleteLove all of them! Especially love the foliage on the last sketch - want to be able to do something like that!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alex! I like loose blobs with a few details...
DeleteGreat to be introduced to Vicky via your sketch and photo. I love how she's intensely observing over her glasses.
