Got another new Brewery in Oakland! As of June, Novel Brewing Co. 6510 San Pablo. I first visited them July 21st. I tried most of their beers in 3 taster waves of 4 each. The taster flights come in nifty little book holders. </div>

This was my first visit to Studio Paradiso in Seattle. You can find them on MeetUp, as part of Seattlefiguredrawing.com. This was a fun group of enthusiastic artists, many who obviously are regulars, but there were a few newbies like me. I'll try to go again if I can next Tuesday before I return to California. Our model was Sage, who has been modeling for about 4 years.</div>

When I was on the Ferry going over to Seattle to go drawing at the Sunday UW figure drawing session (see previous post), a woman came up to me and gave me a ticket to that day's Mariners game. It was the last game of the season, and the Mariners had a small chance to still make the playoffs with one last win. Wow, what a score! Here is my sketch during the game.<br />

<span style="text-align: center;">This was from 2 weeks ago, but I missed scanning it. I went to the Beremerton local Brewery, Der Blokken, after taking a nice walk across the Manette bridge. It was a beautiful, warm, summer day, with a spectacular sunset. Der Blokken is a very small brewery, women run, owned and brewed. They make fantastic beer. </span>The Pistols, Bay Area.http://www.blogger.com/profile/04982437252877729218noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8088565589400352605.post-54146159687905123052014-09-28T21:36:00.001-07:002014-09-28T21:36:50.698-07:00More Sunday Drawings: UW figure group.<div style="text-align: center;">
Sunday Sept. 28. Figure drawing at the UW figure group. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our model was Sharon, emphasis on the o.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really like this group, it was my third Sunday in a row. I don't know many of the artists, but everyone is friendly, engaged in their art, and most are regulars. They switch moderators every other week, and they mix up the pose times, sometime leaning too much on quick gestures but not as much as at the Art/Not Terminal sessions. One moderator plays better music than the other, but both are quiet enough that my iPod can sustain me just fine if I don't like it. Hey, at least there is music! It's not like drawing at the UC session in kroeber hall in that regard.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Guess I really just like the room, it feels like art school. I liked this model a lot, when she started out her facial expressions were so severe I was not sure she was really enjoying herself but I guess that is just how she works. Between sessions she was very chatty and pleasant and knew most of the artists well.</div>

The figure drawing group at the UW has long been a favorite place for me to drop in on. Here are some drawings from Sunday, Sept 14. So far the Seattle groups tend to favor a ton of quick sketches, a little to many for my liking. I prefer just 20 minutes of quick warm ups. The 20 + minute poses allow for more details.</div>

While on Vacation in Seattle I try to keep it up as well, as my travel allows me to anyway. I attended two sessions over the weekend, Saturday at the Art/Not Terminal on Westlake, a Seattle Art Collective, and Sunday at the University of Washington. The Sat. session was mostly 1,2,5 minute poses. Too many for my liking, but I liked our model and the environment is very good. The music cold be better. In fact, I think it was the same playlist I heard when I last drew there 2 years ago! <br />

My favorite session is at the UW. I have been attending this session on and off for 25 years! Again, the music could be better, but that is why I have my own sessions. my iPod keeps me happy while I draw. There were two other guys there who were also at the Art/Not Terminal.
