Point Defiance Marina

We met this morning to sketch around the Pt. Defiance Marina. There were so many scenes that interested me I decided to do a two page montage.  The sketch on the far left I didn't like, so I did another one and made it a patch.

Boat House

This is a back door view of the Boat House on the water front near Point Defiance Park. I choice this view because it looked like it needed a friend and I was in the shade on a warm and sunny day. The work was done in ink and watercolor pencil.    Rom LaVerdiere

June 6 Saturday outing

The June Saturday outing will be on the 6th at the Point Defiance Marina.  Entry is free and there is parking.  Use the Pearl St. entrance to Pt. Defiance park but instead of driving into the park, veer right as though going to the Vashon ferry dock.  Drive past the dock, and through a narrow street, following signs for the Marina Boathouse.

Meet outside the Boathouse at 10 am.  We'll return there at 12:30 to share sketches and have lunch together. 

There are many views to sketch and some shelter, both in the boathouse and in or under the viewing platform.

Bring a sack lunch or buy a snack at the boathouse.  

During the summer months (June-August), Frances Buckmaster will be hosting additional afternoon sketch-outs at our monthly Saturday locations. Beginning Time:'After lunch'--Ending Time: 4 pm, when we will share our afternoon sketches at a location to be arranged at our 12:30 gatherings. If sketching from 10 am to 4 pm proves popular and there are regular attendees, we may continue with an afternoon schedule after August.
