I've posted many sketches of Crook's Corner, our favorite local restaurant, over the years. And with such delicious food (chef Bill Smith is world famous and much awarded) and great ambience, why the heck NOT go, drink, dine, and sketch? Do you have a better idea? Aha! I thought not!
Life continues to be a bit complicated and HOT! (It was 95F today!), but all will be well and run more smoothly soon!

Looks like my kind of place too! It is so hot here too, in the high 90's and over 100 with the humidex. Love the little pig, so cute! XOX

Crook's Corner is one of the things I miss about Chapel Hill-Carrboro. So is being hot...
You are most amusing. Pigx-pox, indeed!

I love it when you sketch in restaurants, Laura such a delightful low cal treat! Very classy drawings.

Sounds like a great place! Please don't hesitate to go again!

Well its an excellent idea to come and visit your sketches after you've dined at Crooks - always a pleasure. Stay cool!

Hmmm, if the food was half good as the sketches it was sure a great dinner!

I really love these, Laura--love the Crooks Corner pig! I recognized that immediately. Great job!

Sorry to hear life is complicated for you right now. But thanks for taking time to brighten mine with a birthday message and with these delightful vibrant sketches. I love the natural air conditioning we usually have in the SF Bay Area. The weather was absolutely perfect today!

Dining, drinking and sketching is my favorite way to spend the evening. 95° is hot, just like Bali, so we will both be ready for Orlando?...
Got my tickets the other day.

I stopped by to see what you have been working on and am pleased you have had many successes. The restaurant looks like a great place to sketch. My favorite place to sketch is in a restaurant, too. Love your finished painting of the two chairs. Just delicious the way you have developed the painting with all the wonderful color in the reflections.

A week-old thank you! The wedding has knocked me off my work routine, but what a great way to be preoccupied!
Posted by: Laura | June 28, 2009 at 08:09 PM
Your work continues to amaze me. Your quick sketches are a wonderful as your finished work. I admire your dedication to drawing so often.
