That should keep us occupied for a long time...

I made a second print based on drawings from Kletzsch Park. For this print I was sitting in the same spot as for the other print (see previous post) but facing more to the left.

Ariana and I were in New Orleans for two days in October. We stayed in a really nice part of the city called Faubourg Marigny, it's just east of the French Quarter. We wandered around and found Washington Park where I drew this palm tree. A little later in the day we were in Jackson Square where a woman was feeding the pigeons. She seemed to favor a pigeon we called stumpy because he only had one foot. Who wouldn't favor a one footed pigeon? I tried to draw the pigeons but they just moved around too much. That didn't prevent Ariana from making  a few pigeon studies (Stumpy is the second one from the top). I know it's not On Location Milwaukee's usual stomping grounds but we thought we would carry a little bit of the On Location spirit with us.
