Sketch Outing at Krohn Conservatory

Sketch by Amy Bogard

Amy Bogard, Vanessa Sorensen and I recently took an afternoon to sketch at the Krohn Conservatory. It is one of our favorite spots, especially during the winter. We long to sketch outdoors; cherry blossom season cannot come too soon!

Amy Bogard and Christina Wald can often be seen around town sketching city sites, and we don't slow down during the busy holiday season.  Yesterday we visited the lovely Krohn Conservatory to sketch their holiday display.  It is beautiful, filled with Cincinnati icons made out of natural materials.We found out later from Chuck Rekow that the display was done by Applied Imagination.

we were fortunate to find a bench to settle into

When not out sketching, we both work on our own projects.  Amy's character, Ginger Small, really enjoys readying for the holidays.  

And Christina created this Stagfox to grace her holiday cards. 

Wishing all of you and yours a wonderful and restful holiday and a Happy New Year!

Morning Sketching at Krohn Conservatory

Vanessa Sorensen's Sketch

Amy Bogard, Vanessa Sorensen and I all went to Krohn Conservatory Friday Morning to check out the butterfly exhibit and sketch.

It was a rainy day out so sketching in the rainforest was just perfect! There are a bunch of caged tropical birds in that area too so we could not resist drawing them (or the koi).
