One of the beautiful Wisconsin Scenes I've come across in the last few days of my visit to this upper mid-west state; Lake Monona.  I could not resist taking the opportunity to capture this scene, of the really nice lake-

within the City of  Madison.

The rendering:
Woman and 'Vette Outside a Scnucks
-

Happened in Rockford Illinois.

The last moments of my first visit to Chicago ended with a sketch of Ethelberto done in a laundramat in the Sheridan Park -North Broaday neighborhood.  The man was very happy and proud to have his picture drawn by a traveling quick sketch artist.  When I first approached him and sugested drawing him he offered to give me some money which I couldn't refuse since it helps to keep me traveling.

  But when I finished he made good and doubled his original offer.  The kind of people you meet in laundramats in Chicago!...  True art lovers and patrons!
