On Location Milwaukee

Here's one of my drawings. I used a felt-tip pen and old fashioned paper. Hard to believe it's summer. It felt like March.

I used my Palm Zire Notepad again at the Milwaukee VA Medical Center. The grounds are quite nice and some of the old buildings are very nice but in need of repair. It could be a very promising site to draw in the future. It's also on the Hank Aaron Trail for the cyclists in our group and the bicycle curious. However, we need to identify a public bathroom for future visits.

I'm a little late getting this up and spreading the word. Chris was the lone representative today. I heard that Paula and John made it over after the rain stopped!

I was happy to represent On Location Milwaukee at the 11th anniversary celebration of Blue Dress Park. It pretty much rained the whole time but quite a few people stuck it out and bonded over wet shoes, Wisconsin weather and delicious brats. My drawings are black and white so I'm afraid they don't do the event justice: the concrete park was entirely covered with a plastic gingham table covering. I did all of these drawings with my Palm Zire 21 PDA.

The good folks at INOVA brought this large blue shirt sculpture from their Samuel Williams exhibition.
