Draw at the Missouri Botanical Garden

Sam's Sturgeon:



This morning I was not sure the day would work out. It was beginning to rain and our Meetup was at 2:00pm. To my pleasant surprise, it never went beyond a light sprinkle, and eventually warmed up.

I understand for any of those who were unable to make it, as it was really looking like it was going to be a wash. Anyway, both Sam and I attended, and it was great. We began by the fountain. and walked in a winding circle around the garden drawing along the way. Thanks Sam for coming. It was great to meet, take in the scenery, and commit some of it to paper.

Brian's Sturgeon and Tree:



It's always a good experience to be able to see how people interpret the same scenes differently. I'm looking forward to future outdoor events where we can see a lot of variety. Please come along and feel free to bring a friend if you would like.
