Pacific Place in downtown Seattle is full of upscale retail
stores. At this morning’s sketch outing, I decided to look at their display
cases for ideas since they always feature their finest merchandise. Initially looking for red and green holiday cheer,
instead I found compelling monochromatic imagery. I’m always intrigued with the offerings of a
favored jewelry store, and sure enough, arranged with thin, elegantly designed
candlesticks and matching tapers ready to catch the light, their window was an
eye catcher.

Up the escalator, a bridal shop had an exquisite wedding
gown in the window. Flowing and sparkly,
I think you would feel like a princess walking up the aisle in this gown. The crystal chandeliers added a touch of
glamour to an already glamorous display.

I must have picked up a theme, because my next sketch was
all about LOVE. Besides love and
marriage, there was seasonal love in bright lights at Pacific Place. From my perch in front of LOVE, numerous families
passed me by; clearly out for the day seeing the sights, visiting Santa or gift
shopping for loved ones. With live music
on a stage and holiday decor, Pacific Place was a festive haven.
