| 4/27/18 Top Pot Doughnuts, West Seattle |
After
a phenomenal week of sunshine and record-breaking heat yesterday, today dawned cloudy with a chance of rain, which normally would have been
disappointing for our sketch outing in West Seattle. I was eager, however, to
apply the concepts I learned last week in Andika’s workshop, so I didn’t mind staying indoors at Top Pot Doughnuts.
It
was only after I sat down with coffee and an apple fritter and looked around
the room that I began to realize something strange: Top Pot has no right
angles! The walls, the almost-L-shaped bar, the funky, partially rounded
ceiling trim – everything is slightly askew.
Fortified
with fat, sugar and caffeine, I attacked the room, grumbling and occasionally
muttering, What would Andika do? I had planned to put at least some of my
doughnut into the sketch, but it took me a full two hours to do the sketch, so the doughnut
didn’t have a chance.
