41 st Sketchcrawl

Overlooking Turtle Pond

Belvedere Castle

The St Urban on CPW

Joan and I , being sketchaholocics, wanted to squeeze in one more sketch before driving home. It was getting dark and cold, so we stopped into Starbucks. This guy had such strong features, I sketched quickly before he left.

The girls high school art class with their sketches. The teacher is in the shot, hiding in the back! Y'allcome back now!

Art class trouble makers ;)

It was my first time out with the Urban Sketchers NYC group...
some very nice and talented folks to spend time with on a Saturday morning.
Next time I'll talk to more of you!

 Belvedere Castle in Central Park

Delacorte Theatre
 In 2001, I watched Christopher Walken play a memorable Sorin in a production of The Seagull here. Good times.

OK, see you next time.

After we had lunch together we went back to Central Park West and sat on benches sketching one of the iconic Beaux Arts apartment buildings that overlook the park.

View from Belvedere Castle. First time in Central Park in the fall in a few years, I was feeling really glad to be back.

A jazz band started playing...can't get much better than that.
