October 5th, NW Quimby Lucky Lab Drink & Draw

 

Back to the NW Lucky Lab again for a drink and draw in October. 

5-7pm on Monday, Oct 5

Lucky Labrador Beer Hall, 1945 NW Quimby

Maybe inside, maybe outside.  We'll see what the weather's like.

Art Boat!

 ART BOAT! Ten adventurous sailors set forth on the Willamette in an electric boat from Portland Electric Boat Company to sketch from the river. We had a great time & hope to do it again soon. If you want to join us in our seafaring (well, riverfaring) adventures, stay tuned!

N. Mississippi

We had good weather (OK, it could have been a touch warmer) and a fine bunch of sketchers turned out, including a fair scattering of new people.  It was great sketching with you all, and seeing what everyone did.

Hawthorne Asylum Throwdown

We had a lovely summer evening sketching the scene at the Hawthorne Asylum Food Cart pod. Thanks for coming and stay tuned for the next SE Sketch.

September 19 Sketchcrawl - N. Mississippi

sketch by Amy Stewart

It's been a few years since we did N. Mississippi, and it feels like time to got there again.

The #4 bus runs along Mississippi. In a pinch, you can also take the Yellow MAX to Overlook and cross over I5 on the Failing St pedestrian bridge.

There are coffee shops all up and down the street, with, presumably, restrooms.  There's also a public restroom at the nearby food cart pod, at Mississippi and Skidmore.

• 10 AM: Coffee and introductions in front of Broder Nord, 3765 N Mississippi Ave
• Noon: Throwdown at courtyard next to Broder Nord (in front of The Meadow)
• 12:30-ish: Optional lunch at the food carts at Mississippi and Skidmore

Sept 14 SE Sketch

Join us for the next SE Sketch on Sept 14 from 5-7 pm at the Hawthorne Asylum Food Cart Pod on 10th Ave and Madison. The Asylum is a very lively spot with lots of food trucks, interesting objects to draw, tons of seating, and plenty of opportunities to practice drawing people. There's bike parking at the pod and a bus stop one block away at 12th and Madison. See you there.

September 8 (Tuesday!): NW Quimby Lucky Lab Drink & Draw

We decided to still have the September drink and draw in NW, but slipped it a day, to avoid Labor Day.

Sept 8, 5-7pm.

Rainbow Road Sketch throwdown

From Maria:

We had a perfect summer evening for sketching people, buildings, and the happening scene at the Rainbow Road Plaza on Ankeny Street. 

Riverplace

 It was a great day for sketching.  Granted, it was overcast and a little subdued, but that meant we weren't baking in the sun.  While some of us did the nearby architecture and some of us trooped off to do the nearest crow sculpture, it seemed that most of us did the river.  With half turning left to do the Hawthorne Bridge, and the rest turning right to do the Marquam.
