COVID is very
much still with us. Infections from the Delta variant continue to
increase significantly in King County and WA in general. Please protect your own health
and be considerate of others who may be more vulnerable than you by
wearing a mask whenever you cannot keep a social distance (indoors and
outdoors).
Obviously, if you have had symptoms such as cough, fever or shortness of breath, in the last 2 weeks, please do not attend.

Dare to sketch the challenging angles of the Koolhaas/Prince-Ramus-designed building! In case of inclement weather, a few nearby awnings offer shelter. Alternatively, sketch inside the library, where Levels 1, 3 and 5 are currently open to the public. Meet outside the Fourth Avenue entrance.
love to join, are most outings during the week?

We schedule at least one outing per month on a weekend (usually the third Sunday of the month) and at least one on a Friday. In the warmer weather months, we usually meet several times a month.

ReplyDeletemyblueprint.com has excellent online video art courses, including many on urban sketching! Have fun and keep drawing!
DeleteHi Miata
DeleteI tried going on blueprint but did not come up with the art site. Do you have another name for it? Thanks
Unfortunately, Bluprint went out of business a few months ago. :-(
DeleteIt has been rebranded as Craftsy again: https://www.craftsy.com/#
Deleteplease let us know when we can start sketching together, 6 feet away right? With masks?
ReplyDeleteHi Sandee! We're all eager to sketch together again! We are following Gov. Inslee's requirements for organizations to resume meetings. Currently King Co. is in modified phase 1, which limits social gatherings to 5 or fewer people outdoors.
DeleteHello fellow sketchers
ReplyDeleteIs anyone sketching in downtown Seattle these days? I go to the Market and stay outdoors and it seems to work fine. Please let me know if you are starting up again. Stay Well
Hi Susan! We're all eager to sketch together again! We follow Gov. Inslee's requirements for meetings. The limit for our type of organization is still 5 or fewer people outdoors. Since we have no way to limit the number of people who might show up at a sketch outing, we are still not organizing any official outings. But you are welcome to invite 4 or fewer friends for an outdoor gathering while maintaining social distance and following other safety protocols. Stay safe and happy sketching!
DeleteIt is now mid-March 2021 any more thoughts about meeting outside now that spring is coming? Thanks, susan
DeleteHi Susan! We are still following the state's requirements for "recreational" gatherings, which are currently restricted to 15 people from no more than 2 households. We are as eager to sketch again as a group as you are! Thanks for your patience, and happy sketching!
