The Starbucks Roastery, Unblocked

6/3/16 inks, colored pencil

I’ve sketched inside the Starbucks Reserve and Roastery several times, both by myself and with USk Seattle, but it’s always been in the winter when I didn’t want to spend much time outside. The last time I sketched there in January, I swore I’d return another day in warmer weather to sketch the outside of the building.

Don't you hate it when this happens?
That day finally came last Friday when I was downtown on my donut mission. On that beautiful sunny morning, I walked across the street from the Roastery and found the perfect shaded spot. I had just opened my sketchbook when a truck pulled up right in front of me. I could tell by the kinds of stuff being unloaded that it would be there a while, so I crossed kitty-corner to another spot. It turned out to be a more interesting angle on the building anyway, so I have that truck to thank.
