SKETCHING IN PORT TOWNSEND


Darrell, Lucy-dog and I spent the weekend in Port Townsend, Washington because Darrell was teaching a woodworking class at the Port Townsend School of Woodworking.
While they were setting up, on Friday afternoon, Lucy and I sat in front of the school and sketched.
Above are two of the better ones.
The top sketch shows Darrell (seated on bench in red) and the owners of the school talking about the class beforehand.
The bottom sketch is of the NCO houses that are across the way from the school.
These are on 9" x 9" Super Deluxe Aquabee papers. I used a Pigma pen and then went back and colored with watercolors.
I haven't used watercolors in a long while. They are great en plein air.
After Darrell finished we went for a really nice walk around the gun emplacements.
It was a very warm, sunny and relaxing weekend.
