Carol Petrozzello draw­ing on the Desert Lab patio

Artists met to sketch last Sat­ur­day, April 21. I was not able to draw as I had Leo with me. Peo­ple did some nice work that inspired me anyways.

We dis­cussed the idea of mount­ing a show of work done on site at Tumamoc. Merideth found an early bud­ding saguaro that I must have walked right by with out notic­ing. And it was near eye level. I’m doing a photo of it every day to track progress. I have no idea how fast indi­vid­ual saguaro flow­ers bloom and go to fruit.
