St. Spiridon Revisited

6/27/18 St. Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral,
South Lake Union

St. Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral is probably one of those subjects that will always be challenging, no matter how many times I attempt it. Those onion domes are beautiful but daunting. It had been a good three years since the last time I gave them a try, so when Greg said he had some shopping to do at nearby REI, I tagged along and sketched while he shopped.

I knew I had less than an hour (REI customers get one hour of free parking, so we always try not to take longer than that), so I had to bite off a manageable composition. Last time I stood across the street for the widest view, but construction was going on there this time, so I moved closer to the front entrance. I still had plenty of onions to dazzle and boggle me.

Have a fun 4th, everyone! The weather man says ours is going to be sunny for a change!
