Third Thursdays at Avalon Island Gallery.

On Third Thursdays, the Orlando Downtown Galleries all have art openings. I usually stop at Avalon Island Gallery (39 S Magnolia Ave, Orlando, FL) since Patrick Greene hires musicians to perform on the small stage in the historic building. On this Thursday Transparent Trio was performing. This is a rare as where I simply drew in pencil rather than using a micron pen. I rather like the look. I need to sketch this loosely more often.

This room has small cabaret style tables, usually with a single rose in each vase. The tables make for a perfect spot to sketch from. There is a decorative wrought iron railing a round the stage, but I decided to leave it out of the sketch. From here, I walked over to City Arts Factory.
