Doctor House Museum Glendale, CA

After the Urban Sketchers LA event at Desiderio Park, I caught a LYFT to Glendale to attend another event with Barbara Field. One of the objectives was to test out how I could paint two oil paintings and carry them home on the train. The location this time was Doctor House Museum right next to Brand Central library in Glendale. I paid the $10 donation fee and tried to find a place to sit down sketching. Tables, and acrylic paints were provided but it was too close to the building.

It was a scene right out of Jane Austene's 1811 Victorian England "Sense and Sensibility" but with all the heat and sun of Southern California. Only Barbara showed up and unexpectedly two art students @frankidacre and @merciifa fully dressed in Victorian costumes were sketching. The organizers were very supportive providing us with drinks and snacks. I got a ride home with Barbara and it was a very nice sketching day.
