  • Brrrr, it’s cold outside. Good thing we are toasty warm inside.

    Brrrr, it’s cold outside. Good thing we are toasty warm inside.

    We are cozy inside drawing and painting near a warm fire (the hearth makes a great drying shelf for wet sketches).

    We share finished, unfinished (WIPs), and sometimes stages of a sketch. It’s what we’ve manage to get done within two hours together. Click on an image to enlarge it.

    Also below Zoomers share too.

    Why Zoom? Some of our members moved faraway and wanted to stay in touch so we zoom every Friday morning and share what we’ve sketched that week.

    Hello from Rita, Danita, Peggy, Laura, Nancy, Daisy, Bev, Bitty and Marsha! Barbara couldn’t make it but she sent her sketches to share. Not everyone had something to share but that doesn’t mean they were not busy!

  • Lots of creativity happening at Da Ra Cafe!

  • Congratulations to us! Top Drawers Turns 20 this year!

    Congratulations to us! Top Drawers Turns 20 this year!

    This milestone is possible because of you. Your participation, creativity, and continued support have helped keep this group thriving over the years.

    Top Drawers is also made possible by volunteers who generously give their time, energy, and advice (yes—patting myself on the back just a little too). But truly, without everyone, Top Drawers wouldn’t exist.

    We show up when we can, share what we’ve created, support one another, and enjoy each other’s company—and that’s what has sustained this group for 20 years.

    Thank you for being part of this community. Here’s to many more years of creating together!

    In this week’s Zoom we have Danita, Bev, Bitty, Daisy, Laura, Linda, Nancy, and Peggy. Barbara missed this one but sent in her sketch.

    Some sketches are WIPs. Click on an image to enlarge it.
