Working in miniature on this interior scene at the Roasterie. "Baked" is behind glass, and it is such a convenient place to watch AND paint! This tiny painting was the roadmap for a larger piece, executed with more detail. I had intended some of these for a city show, but alas, was just too busy to apply. Oh well, it is all about the process, and this is something I really want to explore this year! Painting number 1851 in 1851 days.
The Roasterie is such a wonderful place for a hot beverage, a bite to eat, and glorious sketching! My first time here, it surprised me that this iconic building with the airplane on the roof is tucked right into the heart of the city! What a treat to find George inside working his magic with bread and pastries! I love being able to capture this kind of scene on site! He was a wonderful subject - and really needs to be painted in oils as well! Painting number 1850 in 1850 days.
What a fun urban sketching event! This morning we all met at the Roasterie in 27th Street for our monthly sketch crawl. SO much to paint! The cafe, the bakery, the cupping room, and this big, beautiful roasters - wow, what a treat! I could have stayed all day to capture all the wonderful equipment and bustle! Painting number 1840 in 1840 days.
