| 9/3/19 University District |
It’s been a slow summer for urban couches; the last time I
sketched one was in early June. Maybe it’s just that I’ve been out of
town frequently, or maybe I just haven’t been in the right neighborhoods. In any
case, I’ve been jonesin’ for one.
Historically, Labor Day weekend is a big one for moving, so
I went out hunting. Sure enough, I spotted this brown leather one in the U-District.
Upholstery torn in several places, its owner didn’t even bother with a “free” sign;
it was destined for the next trash pickup.
Across the street, another pile of furnishings had been abandoned.
I left those for the next sketcher, though.

It is so rare that I see couches out by the curb...but I always think of you when I do. I don't know what people do here with their couches and chairs. Maybe they get picked up before I get out there. Anyway, I Iike the way you depicted the softness of the pillows.
ReplyDeleteSome months I see them frequently, other times none! It's tough for couch hunters like me. ;-)
DeleteI saw one in Kent area today, on the way back from Trader Joe's!
ReplyDeleteI guess that's outside my hunting range! ;-)
