February 15 Sketchcrawl - Central Library

sketch by Linda Daily
The library's been remodeled since we were last there, so let's see what it looks like now.  (The architecture hasn't changed, but the furnishings are all new.)

Case Study is across the street, for coffee and snacks.  (We're allowed to bring food and drink into the library.)

The bus mall is a couple blocks away, and there are streetcar and MAX stops within a block or two.  There are 4-hour parking meters some blocks to the south, on the far side of Salmon, and several garages nearby, one of which is kitty-corner from the library.

Union Station

We got a surprisingly sunny day, considering that it's January, and many of us found spots in the sun and braved the cold to sketch the outside of the station.  

We even got a guest sketcher, someone waiting to board the Coast Starlight to travel to California, who'd brought her sketchbook to document the trip.

January 18 Sketchcrawl - Union Station

sketch by Elo Wobig

Let's go back to Union Station.  There'll be people and architecture to sketch inside, and generous awnings for those who prefer to sketch outside.  

For coffee, there's a cafe inside the station, and also Lovejoy Bakers, at 10th and Lovejoy, and Ovation Coffee, at 10th and Overton.

  • 10am - Meet under the awnings outside the main entrance to Union Station
  • 12 noon - Meet again at the same place for an optional throw-down
