First Presbyterian

The entire group was invited to come and sketch at First Presbyterian, inside, out out the rain.  And gobs of people showed up for it.

I ended up in the balcony and did two sketches, one of the central portion of the stained glass window at the front of the church, and the other of a couple of the hand-carved moldings.

Christmas Eve

The prelude music at First Presbyterian's Christmas Eve Lessons and Carols.

Pioneer Courthouse Square

There'd been a plan to shift into Pioneer Place if it was raining, but there was enough shelter around the square that everyone found dry spots and stuck around.  Some did the tree and others the courthouse, and some, like me, did the weather machine.


I'd been expecting to see the dragon because it was so wet, but the heron was up again.


I joined some of the others for lunch and came back afterwards, when the dragon had replaced the heron.


Tuba Christmas

Except that I got there too late to get close enough to actually see any tubas.  So I listened from the edge of the square and did the heron atop the weather machine.

Book Club

Union Station

Another train ride, and another sketch from memory.  I studied a teddy bear in the Christmas display and then sketched it after boarding the train.

Lecture

A pre-concert lecture in Seattle.  Performing sea shanties to an audience of early-music patrons.
