Fabulous results from the February sketchcrawl at Sofitel Grand Ducal

Our February sketch meeting on a grey Sunday in February was a great success! A large group of happy urban sketchers spent the afternoon in the bar L'Observatoire, overlooking Luxembourg city. The bar is on the 8th floor of the Sofitel Grand Ducal. Thanks to the barman Antonio and his team for their patience with us taking over the bar!

We sketched the view from the large windows as you can see below:
