Clallam County, a group that bills itself as “Seattle’s
Slowest Rising Folk Group,” gave a lively bluegrass performance at the Lake
City Farmer’s Market – original songs, a sardonic Allison Kraus ballad and even
a Beatles tune thrown in. Since I was standing, I didn’t want to block their
audience’s view, so I stood slightly to the side, which gave me a helluva
foreshortened angle on a banjo and guitars that kicked my sketchin’ butt. But
on a warm and sunny afternoon – the scent of fresh tamales, bright flowers at every
turn, and corn at last! – who could complain?
Brilliant sketch Tina!
ReplyDeleteYou are getting so good at sketching the figures and their instruments! These last two posts are great!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Joan and Sharon! Maybe all the time I've spent at farmer's markets is finally paying off! :-)
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing this page on my blog, Clallam County's Peter McKee (the banjo player) had difficulty posting a comment and asked me to put this comment here for him:
ReplyDeleteTina - Thank you so much for showing us your fantastic sketch. Our band has never been the subject of such a talented artist! Fantastic!
