Greg wanted to scope out some potential spots for fireworks
viewing this Saturday. It was still early – this afternoon is supposed to be
another scorcher – so I tagged along for a sketch. We headed over to the north
end of Capitol Hill and walked along Harvard Avenue East, which parallels
Interstate 5. Looking west over the freeway, I saw a lovely blue and green view
of Lake Union, Queen Anne Hill and the Olympic Mountains. Unfortunately, I hadn’t
thought to bring my landscape-format book, so I had to limit my sketch to the
Lake Union section (visible once again are no less than four construction cranes!).
Just after I finished sketching, I remembered that this week’s
theme in the Urban Sketchers Flickr group is skylines!
How great that you were scouting locations to watch the fireworks! This looks like a nice unobstructed view. Nice sketch...almost like a map.
