Howdy Sketchers,
Our next amazing sketch location will be the Albuquerque Jackalope. Located at 6400 San Mateo Blvd NE in Albuquerque, Jackalope is a very colorful fun place to sketch. We will meet at 10:am on Saturday the 18th and sketch until noon. Now some folks say Jackalope have been around since pre Columbian times. In our times though it seems Douglas Herrick first spotted one in Douglas Wyoming after a hunting trip in 1932. Since then there have been sightings in several of the mid-western states including New Mexico. Reportedly folks have been viscously attack when Jackalopes became frightened, so it is best to keep a safe distance if you see one. There have been many sightings around and in this location so this should prove to be an exciting location to sketch.
On a different note, for our planning purposes it is much better if we know and can let the businesses we go to know how many folks will be in attendance. In that light we will, from this location forward, we need everyone to RSVP. If you plan to attend a Sketch-out you can RSVP by sending an email to spaderart@gmail.com. Just say “I’m in” or write a whole page if you care to. This is a practice we dropped when Covid made the numbers of attendees drop but it is time we got back to it. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
And now for “Tamaya” wasn’t that a great location to sketch, everyone seemed to have a good time as is evidenced by the wonderful artworks displayed below.
Please send you thoughts to spaderart@gmail.com. Don’t forget to RSVP and we hope to see you all at Jackalope.
Stay safe, stay happy and keep sketching.
Spader
