More cheer from Good Cheer, some odd and quirky antiques. We even had a great selection of chairs to sit in while we painted.  Some of us spent more time buying than sketching. A great place to hang out!

Live & Learn at Good Cheer 2

It's always fun sketching at Good Cheer. In looking about for a subject I thought, oh what fun it'd be to sketch some shoes. The boots were colorful and looked simple enough. Well, rain boots are not so easy. They're clunky but subtle in shape. I messed it up big time, brought it home and tried fixing the sketch with some gouache. It's okay. I learned to let well enough alone. So keep at it!

Thrift Shop Girls

Sketched at Good Cheer Two Thrift Store yesterday. Tons of fun things to sketch and staff was very welcoming. I drew a couple of the girls from very sweet Native American doll collection. I cracked myself up with this one. I call it: "Pocohantas and Bride of Chuckie". Bride of Chuckie was really not that cranky looking in reality, only in my sketch.  The corners of the mouth make all the difference, eh?

Sketching Good Cheer

Got in a couple sketches with the sketchers at Good Cheer. The place was hopping busy. Cheers!

Good Cheer Two

It was a cold rainy day yesterday, so we were all happy to be inside the colorful Good Cheer Two.  This is a huge Thrift Shop in Clinton that is very busy.  So many people running in checking on things and the cash register pinging away.  I even found a hat for my husband, right size, style and price and brand new!
