Hey guys! We got together yesterday to plan some new sketch club dates for next month, so do keep your eyes peeled for those dates COMING SOOOOON! 👀🙌

Meanwhile, we still have our last scheduled meet-up this Saturday eve (5pm) at the Abbey so do come to that one, it's a really nice spot and there is shade if we have another hot one like Sunday!!! 🌞😅

Here's a little collection of sketches and photos from our last two sessions at English Bridge Workshop and at the Flaxmill. Thanks to everyone who attended, we love seeing all the beautiful artwork you make!!! We've had quite a few new attendees recently too, and it's been wonderful to see the community grow 😌💛🌟

Have a great week!!!
