Where Are You From?

[Buddy Skelton]

Looks like some of you are quite close to one another! Maybe that could be something to look in to. Lol. Even if you don't meet in person starting a conversation online could be worth it.

@artwithashley, or anyone else close, you should totally go visit the SVS studio if they would let you!! That would be great!

[SarahLuAnn]

Schenectady, New York (near Albany). @lmrush used to live quite close by before her recent move... we got to meet up a few times though, which was fun.

I am in New York City. It would be great to have regional meetups.

I did this quick editable map.

Everybody can add a marker of their city. You can rename your marker as your forum name. I marked mine (didn't put exact street address just the city, so don't think I live in City Hall).

@nasvikdraws great idea!

@kaitlinmakes Lol! I sat here for a few minutes contemplating the network challenge of connecting with another artist and I say, I am physically nauseous. Lol. Why is it so hard?!
I’m south of Folsom in Ione. I would’ve said Ione in my earlier post but no one ever knows where that is.

[kaitlinmakes]

@burvantill I hear you - but I am also so excited to have someone who lives so close driven by the same passion!
I haven't been through Lone - but I have been through Folsom, and they have that awesome zoo that would be great for a sketch day - or there's always The Crocker. Let me know - I would definitely be so down to talk shop with you.

@nasvikdraws this is so awesome

[Buddy Skelton]

@nasvikdraws DUDE!!! This is so cool! What a great feature.

[burvantill]

@kaitlinmakes lol! It’s ione not Lone. Between Jackson and Folsom. No worries. Everyone one does that when I type it. The upper case I and lower case l issue. I love the folsom zoo. I have always wanted to just go and sketch animals but never have gone by myself so I could zone out. Would that be interesting to you?

@nasvikdraws Even if this doesn't help with networking, it's helping my geography. Thanks.

Torino (Turin), Italy. I've just dropped a pin on the royal palace, in case anyone wants to go for a gelato and a stroll through the adjacent painting galleries (not at the same time!).
