Our local Sketchcrawl group got together for the 34th International drawing marathon today. The Tallahassee Museum of History and Natural Science, one of our favorite and most inspirational sketchspots, hosted the group--offering free admission and a gallery exhibit of our sketches. Free admission to the park on Jan 29th after 2 pm and Feb 11th all day to anyone who comes to view the exhibit. Thanks Tallahassee Museum!
Participants today included, Jennifer Clinard, Mark Fletcher, Bill Otersen, Barbara Psimas, Mary Sterner Lawson, and Tim White.
Today Jennifer Clinard finished her sketch of our long-time animal friend Carmella the cow (who just recently passed away) by completing the background
Mark Fletcher's portraits/sketches of our new calf Maizey, with goats behind her
Bill Otersen captured the essence of the ever-moving emus
Bill Otersen can even draw while waiting in line for lunch!
Some members sketched despite difficult life circumstances today. Thanks for your efforts!
Other members who have drawn at the Museum and will be in the show Jan 29
include John Bevis, Sara Chang, Dede Harter and Jeff Zenick.

Although she did not join us at the Tallahassee Museum crawl, Joyce Raichelson's drawing is in the spirit of Sketchcrawl and we hope she will come with us next time. Joyce drew this scene at Dorothy Oven Park.
If anyone sketched on their own in the Tallahssee area outside the museum on this worldwide art day, please email your jpgs to me at my email turtlehillclaystudio@yahoo.com for posting at www.sketchcrawl.com
