Well this is a drag. My friends over at Bar Max on Colfax in Denver are temporarily closed. For years I’ve been dropping by when I can on Thursday nights for Denver Figure Drawing Club, hosted by the homie Kayla. It is the highlight of my week every time I go. The life drawing group is great. And every other night it is a nice place to get a cocktail and chill, write, draw and chat. Everyone that works there is cool as hell.

They’re having air conditioner issues and it sounds like they are going to take the opportunity to do some other improvements. I am very much hoping that Marshall and the crew are able to reopen soon with no issues. Denver can’t afford to lose a place like Bar Max. It’s a special spot. I’m also hoping that all the great people who work there are getting by okay in the meantime. With luck, we’ll be celebrating their return soon.

Here are some of my drawings from Figure Drawing Club at Bar Max this year…

Miss y’all 😭
