Rain Again?

We  met yesterday at Earthwise Architectural Salvage.  Our fist sketch outing to this unique location was in April last year. It rained and the sketchers voiced a desire to return in better weather.

I thought July would be a safe bet. Puget Sound has been hot and dry in July, Aug and into September during the past few years. Well, not this year. I'm actually happy to have some rain during the summer but had hoped for a dry day for this outing. Still, there were several intrepid sketchers.

Shelter was in view of his subject.


Courage, one of three dogs on site, joins Liz while she sketches.




I chose to use an 8x10 sheet to do a montage of the location. At least three of us sketched these signs!



The two women working there were so nice and welcoming. Especially when we moved inside due to the rain. We'll likely be back next year in another attempt to have a dry day to sketch outside. 

I made some avant-weird photos of some of the stuff in the shop.  More photos here.
