May 17, 2014



We weren't painting, but we reconvened the "Sketch Club" and visited Rosehill Cemetery. What a beautiful morning! And what a wonderful location. Everywhere you looked, there was history, beauty, nature and architecture. Enough sketching opportunities to keep us busy for quite a while! Just look at the Firemens Memorial above. Or take a closer look below.


Only two of  us managed to make it, but we had a great time. Unfortunately, the photos were of the cell phone variety and two are rather fuzzy. Still, you'll get the idea of what we saw. Ken felt inspired by the entire landscape



...while Elaine concentrated on famous individual memorials. Just a note: her sketches were actually better in person, sharper and clearer!



We didn't even get to see the whole place, so you know we hope to return. Probably not this weekend, though; because of the holiday weekend, no one will be there, so we'll see you at 10 am at the Ravenswood entrance on May 31. You know you want to join us! And it's your last chance before class begins again on June 7. See you then!
