3.23.14

sketching within a couple of blocks from home on a super bright Sunday. I am always in awe of this corner with the huge radio towers, I didn't even come close to getting all the lines in this view. 



just around the corner this giant odd shaped place of worship hides in the trees, the front of building will be mostly in hiding after spring has sprung. I went around to the back of the building at 15th & Pike to get an unobstructed view, looks like a stunted silo.

Wintergrass '14

I have attended Wintergrass Bluegrass Festival for a few years now, always with a ticket and always with a camera. The Friday Urban Sketcher group met on Feb.28 for a sketch at the Hyatt in Bellevue,WA where the Wintergrass International Music Festival was getting cranked up. I'm not sure when the word International replaced Bluegrass, I don't like it. We did not purchase tickets because I knew from past experience that folks would be playing together in the hotel lobby all morning. Drawing bluegrass musicians while they play is difficult, hard not to tap your feet!
