New Experiences, New Food, Old Friends

Today Ms. Wise, Ms. Dancer and I all went to the Getty Drawing hour and then to a new Italian restaurant for dinner. This is something that Ms. Dancer and I do often as we both went to art school and we try to attempt to keep our sketching skills from getting completely encased in rust. Ms. Wise, a copywriter that I work with occasionally has no drawing skills but decided to come anyways because that is what friends are for, to push each other into other areas of interest.

Today we were learning about shapes in the human body and working with negative and positive space to create the best representation of what you see. Ms. Wise after 45 min found that she was not having a very good time and since both Ms. Dancer and I were starving we decided to ditch class and head off early to dinner.

Dinner was right up Ms. Wise’s alley. She is a huge food nut and Pecorino’s, a restaurant named after the most popular Italian cheese, original cuisine was just the thing to make us all a bundle of happy love. Because who would not be a bundle of love with a bellyful of super yummy Italian food, a glass of superb wine, and a night of laughs with great friends. I also really enjoyed the ambiance of the place, it was tucked away at the end of the Brentwood strip, the restaurant was small and cosy with brick walls, candlelight, and exposed beams. You could tell it was a local favourite with the metre de calling out people stepping in by name and multiple guests leaning over tables to talk to the customers beside them. I am thinking this may be a good place to drag my remarkably good looking, nice smelling husband for our wedding anniversary so I can get him drunk and take advantage of him.
