3/29/25 Third Place Commons, Lake Forest Park |
Five other sketchers and I tried something fun during Saturday’s
USk Seattle outing. Sitting together around a table, we each sketched the slice
of view directly in front of us, forming a 360-degree view of Third Place
Commons. When I’ve participated in 360 sketches previously (once at the downtown public library and another time at the UW Quad), the participants
sat in a circle facing out. For this one, we all faced each other toward the
center of the table, which meant we all included fellow sketchers. Fun!
After I finished my first sketch that included Kim (at right), I turned around in my seat 180 degrees to sketch whatever had been directly behind. I like that sketch better (below) because I could see further out into the distance.
During the last half hour before the throwdown, I walked around a bit and sketched a few more people enjoying the Commons on a Saturday morning.

Our 360 throwdown was incomplete because a couple of participants had already left by the time we remembered to photograph all of them together! |
Sounds like a fun way to pick a sketch view. Nice work from everyone.
ReplyDeleteIt is fun and interesting to be "forced" to sketch whatever is in front of you instead of taking the time to carefully choose! I enjoyed it.
