“THE SHAPES AT THE ORCHARD HOUSE” A series of interesting (to me) “bits” mashed together. Sketched during the recent meetup of the Thursday Morning Sketch mob. The location was the delightful Orchard House Inn+Cafe, located on Route One at the northern fringe of Freeport ME. The sketches were done with a MONT BLANC “Meisterstück” fountain pen with PLATINUM Carbon ink in an 11” x 14” Mixed Media sketchbook. Watercolor will likely be add in the future. #LobstArtstudios @tom.brudzinski #art #dessinateur #artist #zeichner #dessin #sketch #drawing #quicksketch #RanDOODLINGdom #croquisrapide #croquis #szkic #szkicownik #urbansketchers #urbansketch #midcoastsketchers #mainerswithinkyfingers #southernmainesketchers #FREEPORTME #freeportmaine #montblancmeisterstück #orchardhouseinn #platinumcarbonink #montblancmeisterstück

#Midcoast #Maine communities participate in #NoKings Day of Peaceful Action

Several events are scheduled around Maine, including in #BathME, #BrunswickME, #FreeportME, #RocklandME and #WiscassetME.

October 14, 2025

"No Kings, a peaceful protest movement against the Trump administration, has recently announced there are now over 2,500 community events scheduled for its Day of Peaceful Action on Saturday, Oct. 18. These events are organized by average Americans across personal, political and geographic demographics in all 50 states.

"There are five event locations in the Midcoast: the corner of Main and School streets in Freeport, 8-11 a.m.; Wiscasset Bridge on Route 1, 10-11 a.m.; 191 Maine St., Brunswick, 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; Rockland’s Chapman Park, 294 Main St., noon to 1 p.m.; and Sagadahoc Bridge in Bath, 1-2 p.m. Go to nokings.org/#map to see all No Kings Day of Peaceful Action events.

"Building on the momentum of the June 14 day of action, which drew more than 5 million people across all 50 states, the #October18 mobilization is the next chapter in the No Kings movement. According to a prepared release, the aim of the Day of Peaceful Action is to send a unified message: We are a nation of equals, and our country will not be ruled by fear or force.

"Groups organizing the No Kings peaceful protests across the country include #ACLU, #AmericanFederationOfTeachers, #CommonDefense, #50501Movement, #HumanRightsCampaign, #Indivisible, #LeagueOfConservationVoters, #MoveOn, #NationalNursesUnited, #PublicCitizen, #SEIU and #UnitedWeDream, among others.

"All No Kings events adhere to a shared commitment to nonviolent protest and community safety, the prepared release said. Organizers are trained in de-escalation and are working closely with local partners to ensure peaceful and powerful actions nationwide."

“WHILE SIPPING A CAPPUCCINO” A steady rain resulted in an indoor session for the Thursday morning Sketchmob. The gathering place was the “Coffee Maker Cafe” in Freeport. Great spot, great coffee and it’s connected to a great shop featuring work by Maine artisans. Done with a PILOT fountain pen with MONTEVERDE Joy Sepia ink with a watercolor sky in an 9” x 12” sketchbook. #LobstArtstudios @tom.brudzinski #dessinateur #artist #szkicownik zeichner #dessin #sketch #drawing #quicksketch #croquisrapide #croquis #szkic #szkicownik #pilotoen #monteverdreink #sepiaink #coffeemakercafe #freeportmaine #freeportme

“SKETCHING HISTORY” Sketched during the recent meetup of the Thursday Morning Sketchmob at the Freeport Historical Society courtyard. There were a lot of subjects to choose from, and I chose the iconic Harrington House anchoring the votner in Main St. The sketch was done with a MONT BLANC “Meisterstück” fountain pen with PLATINUM Carbon ink in an 11” x 14” Mixed Media sketchbook. #LobstArtstudios @tom.brudzinski #art #dessinateur #artist #zeichner #dessin #sketch #drawing #quicksketch #RanDOODLINGdom #croquisrapide #croquis #szkic #szkicownik #urbansketchers #urbansketch #midcoastsketchers #mainerswithinkyfingers #southernmainesketchers #FREEPORTME #freeportmaine #freeportarchitecture #freeporthistoricalsociety #platinumcarbonink #montblancmeisterstück
