Washington State Fair 2019

Washington State Fair 2019
Tacoma Urban Sketchers were invited to sketch at the Washington State Fair on September 6.  As I sketched the carnival area in the morning, a staff member approached, seeming to be interested in my sketch. I soon discovered he was unable to hear spoken language. We managed to communicate with each other, discovering that we had something in common. Turns out, we are both left-handed.
When the carnival rides began, it got pretty busy and there was a lot of commotion. I returned early the following Thursday to finish this sketch and take a ride on the wooden roller coaster.
The Superintendent of Fine Arts appreciated the artists participation and would like us to return next year.

Arches 140# paper, Micron pen, watercolor, 4 scones, and 1 roller coaster ride
