Down the memory lane: West Seattle

I attended a couple of sketch outings held in West Seattle. I think all my sketches done in West Seattle turned out great. Not because I am good. This suburb just has a lot to offer. It has the beach, the woods, the view of Seattle and busy streets. You can find everything for urban sketching.









Down the memory lane: August 20, 2016- West Coast Sketch Crawl

This was my very first time attending a sketch crawl. To be honest, I was a bit overwhelmed. The sketch outings I go to are usually 2.5 hours long. Some times I might do one more sketch on my way home if I see something interesting. But this sketch crawl was all day long. I got all day to sketch! It should be a wonderful thing but that day I somehow couldn't keep going after I finished the second sketch.


It's still a good experience. Now I know what to look for when sketching in a strange town/city. I look forward to next sketch crawl.

Down the memory lane: July 2, 2016- Climbing trip in Lavernworth

It was our first July the 4th. We met up with Steve and Lucy in Lavernworth and had a great long weekend away.

It's good to have 3 people climbing together, in my humble opinion, because I get to sketch while the other two climbers are working on the route. This route, however, turned out to be very tricky and took us more than 8 hours to get back to the camp.
