I’ve noticed that most of my recent subjects have been trees. Yesterday I found a new subject: a huge grain ship being loaded at the grain terminal along the Seattle waterfront.
I traveled to Seattle yesterday morning to paint with other members of the Northwest Watercolor Society. It was a lot of fun to see twenty other painters at their easels along the shore of Elliott Bay Park. At noon we gathered to prop our paintings up against a driftwood log for the “throwdown”, our impromptu art show.
To get to the park, I drove to a park-and-ride, took a Bremerton bus to the ferry terminal, boarded the fast ferry to Seattle, walked up to Third and Pike, took a Seattle bus and walked to the park. For the return, I reversed the process. I was glad to get home at 3:30 pm and take a nap!
You handled the detail in the structures very well. Realistic. Good work.
Thanks, Warren. It was a fun subject.
