Busy, busy waterfront

I think most of Seattle and as many tourists were on the waterfront yesterday. It was a perfect day for sketching. I couldn't help but think how we deserved it. Remember some of our outings- rain, snow and plenty of gray?

I found the viaduct very hard to sketch. But I will also miss it and felt committed to giving it a shot. Elliot's Oyster House looked especially charming with exploding hanging flowers. I had to add darks to both sketches at home. All that sun must have misled my sense of colors.

  2. Fresh and summery! Great job on the viaduct; it's a presence, but not overpowering

  4. Clarity is what comes to mind looking at these. The darks do help things pop. Really nice sketches.
