Art Design and Dine in Cheyenne has quickly becoming an exciting art happening the second Thursday of each month during most of the year! Last month Vanda Edington and I hosted our show of pastel paintings at Nagel Warren Mansion during Art Design and Dine. This month I was off for my first trip to see the Hynds Building in action and take part in the weekly figure drawing session available to the community. All I can say is...what a fun evening! We set up and began drawing at 5 pm. Soon the building was filled with art, a jazz band in the front room and theater vignettes in the back room, and those of us doing figure drawing was located in the middle room. The energy from the interaction of people coming in to check out art at the Hynds was contagious! If you haven't come out to the Art Design and Dine gallery tour I would recommend putting it on your calendar! November 10th is sure to be another wonderful evening!
To give you a taste of what I did last night, I am posting a couple of pages from my sketch book. These are just quick unfinished sketches done in some of our 10 or 15 minutes poses. The study drawings began with gestural drawing of 2 minutes each, working our way to the last 25 minute drawing ending at 8 pm. All my drawings were done in pencil and charcoal. Hopefully, I have spurred your interest to get out and see what's going on with the art community! To find out more about Art Design and Dine, check out there web site http://www.artdesigndine.com/ .

I am no artist. I stumbled in your blog and found your works getting in my nerve that elevates me as inspiration. Since I do not really understand arts, I make no further comment but pay my respect to your majestic works.
Thank you, Amitava. It pleases me that you enjoy my work and that it has inspired you!
