We've been sketching in the heat for more than a month now. This coming Saturday looks like a normal summer day instead of the scorcher's we've been experiencing. We still want to visit locations below 14th Street so we have lots of artwork for our next show.
Rockefeller Park looks so inviting. There are trees. There are breezes coming in from the water. There's greenery with an urban background. There's food nearby and bathrooms too. Urban Sketching Perfection! It will also be filled with New Yorkers out enjoying the good weather, depending on us to record their wonderful day. Let's do it!
