Urban Sketchers outing – Golden Gardens Park\u00a0 –\u00a0 2 August 2023<\/p>\n

https:\/\/seattle.urbansketchers.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Life things seem to regularly conspire to interfere with me joining the Urban Sketchers more often.\u00a0 Proximity of this locale to my home made it irresistible; it is our favored place for sea-level walks, and on warm sunny days I do go swimming there.\u00a0 The low tide on this date bumped the visual appeal, as if it needed it.\u00a0 I had earlier received a set of pencils from a friend, they belonged to her father, and are likely vintage 1930’s or 1940’s.\u00a0 This was a good opportunity to give ’em a road test.\u00a0 Something about what gets washed up on a beach inspires people (not always kids!) to gather and arrange items into what could legitimately be called “installations”; always ephemeral, I was fortunate to happen upon a goodie!\u00a0 Former colleague Jerry Powell was an esteemed Professor of Entomology at University of California, Berkeley.<\/p>\n
