A bridge and a boat

These were sketched one fine morning at Riverplace Esplanade.
I watercolored them at home using a camera's image to help my memory for colors.

Really nice. The sailboat one especially puts you right there watching the gentle bobbing of the boat....

3. Our drawings are a record of time and place.
4. We are truthful to the scenes we witness.
5. We use any kind of media and cherish our individual styles.
6. We support each other and draw together.
7. We share our drawings online.
8. We show the world, one drawing at a time.
