Milwaukee Sketch Club Year End Party 5/17/22

This party marks the last time we get together to sketch indoors until autumn. There was a nice variety of food, the location was great, and the people were even better.

Meanwhile various people will be sketching outdoors this summer. There is a very loosely followed guide for outdoor sketching posted on our schedules page which is free and open to all. Some of our members semi-follow that guide on Fridays at 9am. 

Here's a list of other places you might want to try out if the current plein aire guide and time doesn't meet your needs. Some we haven't been to for awhile and some we haven't visited at all.

Possible Plein Air Locations

I discovered that one of our member's had an uncle, Santos Zingale, who was a Milwaukee (Men's) Sketch Club in1930. (The dark ages when no women members were allowed.) Also that Santos taught at Madison and Loren Wiley was one of his students. Amazing! I would like to learn more.












Here's pictures from the party. I just tried to get a photo of everyone as they arrived.

Milwaukee Sketch Club at Waterford Library 4/29/22

This was a great place to sketch the outdoors while sitting inside. A little yellow bird was hopping around outside the window. They also had a baby bearded dragon lizard. Day started out dark and sun started coming out as we were leaving.


















Next Friday we plan to go to New Berlin Library.
