I've posted many sketches of Crook's Corner, our favorite local restaurant, over the years. And with such delicious food (chef Bill Smith is world famous and much awarded) and great ambience, why the heck NOT go, drink, dine, and sketch? Do you have a better idea? Aha! I thought not!
Life continues to be a bit complicated and HOT! (It was 95F today!), but all will be well and run more smoothly soon!

A week-old thank you! The wedding has knocked me off my work routine, but what a great way to be preoccupied!

I stopped by to see what you have been working on and am pleased you have had many successes. The restaurant looks like a great place to sketch. My favorite place to sketch is in a restaurant, too. Love your finished painting of the two chairs. Just delicious the way you have developed the painting with all the wonderful color in the reflections.

Dining, drinking and sketching is my favorite way to spend the evening. 95° is hot, just like Bali, so we will both be ready for Orlando?...
Got my tickets the other day.
