Pioneer Square

7/11/14 Pioneer Square Pergola

In the nearly three years since I’ve been sketching, I’d never sketched in Pioneer Square, the birthplace of Seattle and a must-see for most visitors. It was high time – and the ad hoc Friday sketchers couldn’t have asked for a sunnier morning to meet at this quintessential Seattle location.

Although it’s been done and overdone by many sketchers and artists, I couldn’t resist sketching the Victorian wrought iron Pergola, Pioneer Square’s most iconic structure. Next I sketched the bust of Chief Seattle, our city’s namesake. Both have been in Pioneer Square Park since 1909.

With the historical icons taken care of, I spent the rest of the morning sketching my favorite subject – buskers!

Welcome to several sketchers who joined Seattle USk today for the first time, including Yan, an active Singapore Urban Sketcher!
