Once again, for my next NaNoDrawMo sketch, I’ve returned to Michigan. This is based from my own photo of an old style movie theater. It is in Lapeer, Michigan. It’s a small town that is the county seat in the area in which I grew up. I saw Gone with the Wind here when it was re-released to theaters (probably the 1967 one).

Born in Michigan. Attended undergrad and graduate universities there. I've lived in England, Germany, Southern California and now Washington (state). I'm a retired Medical Social Worker with a past specialty in Oncology. I've enjoyed exploring historical re-creation through the SCA. I costume in several fandoms. Lately I've returned to Art and have taken up Urban Sketching, a version of en plein air painting.
Love the sketch! Old theaters are great. Does this one have one of those wonderful decorated ceilings? We had one where we grew up that had stars that lit up when the lights were turned down. It is in such a crappy neighborhood now, but I would love to see the inside of it and sketch it.
Thanks for your comment. It wasn’t open, so I don’t know what the inside was like.
