However, I never really count on having enough time to do any sketching when out and about with family and friends who don't draw.
It's amusing to see how determined kids are, trying to get on Billie the Piggybank. They usually end up clinging onto the slippery bronze statue piggyback style. One of the best views of the Seattle skyline looking south can be seen from the outdoor area near the Desimone Bridge. I did manage to rough in the Great Wheel, the stadiums, the viaduct and even Mt. Rainier!
To me, family time is so valuable, I wouldn't want to isolate myself for any long period of time while everyone else is visiting. So here's a couple of rough (really rough!)10 minute sketches from our afternoon at the new Market Front at Pike Place Market.
It really was a beautiful summer day to be out in Seattle.
Pretty dang good for 10 minutes! Like yours, in my sketch of Billie, her bronze foot prints look like piggy poo, too! ;-)

Haha! Yeah, that's what I said when I took a look at the hoof prints....."Oh, poo!"
