1st Annual West Coast Urban Sketchers Sketchcrawl
What a blast - sketchers from San Jose, Chico, San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles - and a few from out of state - came to the sketchcrawl organized by my sketchgroup the San Francisco Bay Area chapter of the Urban Sketchers movement.

Visit to Washington state
Last week I continued my "escape from my comfort zone" quite literally. I went to Washington state to attend an art workshop put on by the Urban Sketchers, May 17-19. And I decided to take up an offer by a former boss, Dan Morris, and pay him and his wife, Amy, a visit. They live in Anacortes, way up north. How far up north? Well I could see Canada from their house! OK, I exaggerate bit but not by much. It is beautiful country, islands everywhere. Oh, and green, very green! I got the itch to sketch and knew right off that I could not come close to capturing imagines of this wonderfully scenic part of the world. But I tried anyway. Amy took me to LaConner for lunch one day. We sat at a table overlooking a river or lake.
