Strange as it is to have warm weather in early November, let's use it to our advantage and keep sketching outdoors as long as we can!

This week we will be at a raised plaza, which is part of Fordham University next to Lincoln Center, that offers us cityscapes, statuary and a beautiful lawn up above the hustle and bustle of the city.  Join us for a relaxing day of drawing in this peaceful setting.  Want a bit more?  Cross the street to sketch the plaza in front of the opera house or the wonderful Henry Moore statues in the reflection pool.
