Milwaukee Sketch Club at Veterans Administration Center



Fall Color is very good and appeared very bright against the gray sky. Not much wind. Still comfortable to be outside. VA has very interesting buildings but right now there is some construction going on so parking could become a challenge.

Juliane Rae Mueller critique at Milwaukee Sketch Club

Juliane Rae is a member of the AC Art Association, an interior designer, a teacher and an artist. She has taught at a lot of places including the Milwaukee Art Museum, MATC and Australia. She also gives private art lessons.

I could only find 2 posts about her on the web, in the UWM post advertising her Fen Shui class, http://uwmpost.com/article/50/19/908-Post-Magazine- and in book rags, http://www.bookrags.com/highbeam/home-front-feng-shui-lesson-19990620-hb/ .

Great critique and very interesting pieces from our members, 2 large pastel portraits, 3 sculptures, large city abstract, pastel vegetable still life, too name a few.

Directions to Hank Aaron State Trail

Probably will meet by Klement's Sausage House around 9.

Directions:

Driving east or west on Interstate Highway 94, take exit 308B and go south on State Highway 341 (Miller Park Way) After entering on to Highway 341 move as soon as possible to the right lane and take the exit marked Miller Park. Follow around the curve and at the first set of lights turn right. At the next set of lights turn left into the “Expos” parking lot. This is just south of the Klement’s Sausage Haus.

Park here and take the pedestrian bridge across the river. You'll see the Hank Aaron State Trail sign at the bridge's east end. The trail is down the hill from the sign via ramps at the north and south ends of the walkway.

You can also take 44th Street from the south and follow signs to the General Parking Area
