When we picked the Emeryville Ikea for our East Bay Sketchers meetup, I didn’t know if it would be a terrible idea or a good one. It was a fabulous idea. The Ikea staff was very friendly and the people-watching was spectacular.
Ikea has it all: lots of people of all sorts and sizes, interiors, fabrics, little things (so many little things!), interesting shapes, clean bathrooms, and wonderful landscape views from the top of the parking garage.
Ikea is sketching nirvana.
