Playing catch-up

Here are a couple of DjangoFest sketches . . .

and one drawn during Django of the edible garden at City Hall. The best part of which was meeting sculptor John Alsip and his wife Kay, visiting from their new home in New Mexico. Since I felt I was meeting true Langley celebrity, I even got his autograph!

Djangofest Joy!



How could I leave my sketch kit at home on Djangofest? Well, I did. And didn't want to leave the festivities to go home and get it. So I grabbed a sketchbook from Studio 106 and a regular writing pen (very water soluble), and hit the streets. I can't remember enjoying Djangofest quite so much! The bass player was at the Commons when I sketched him (he was all over the place!), and was standing relatively still. The beautiful young man wearing "mostly just his skin and a feather" (quote Judi Nyerges) was standing very still. Who could resist him? The other two I caught very on the fly and were in two different locations. The guy standing was in front of Callahans and the seated guy was at OM. I thought the music was spectacular, the people watching fabulous, and the sketching fast and furious. What an amazing event!!
