I decided to sketch the Old St. Charles County Courthouse in St. Charles, Missouri while out with the St. Louis Drawing & Painting Meetup Group.  It was a cloudy, overcast day and a short glimpse of sun gave way to some dark ominous skies to the west, which eventually brought some bothersome raindrops to my outdoor sketching experience.  I quickly headed back to Picasso's Coffee and finished the painting inside while downing a hot cuppa.
