Some say this is climate change. Others say it’s just
another El Niño. Seventy-two degrees and a clear blue sky? I don’t care if it’s
April – I call it summer! We couldn’t have picked a better day for Urban Sketchers Seattle to initiate outdoor sketching season!
I started heading for Cal Anderson Park, where I had left
behind a few ideas for things to sketch when the Friday sketchers were there last week. But as I crossed Broadway, I
looked over my shoulder at the Dick’s Drive-in sign and decided to do that first before the lunch crowd got thick.
Parking my stool at the edge of Dick’s lot, I had a great view of that familiar
orange sign against the blue sky.
Next I wandered over to Seattle Central Community College’s
campus, where Charles Smith’s Park Sculpture caught my eye, along with the long, lean shadows of the trees
surrounding it.

I had just enough time before the sketchbook sharing for a
couple more quick ones of the Broadway Farmers Market. I associate farmers markets with summer, so I was surprised
to see that it was open already. Then I remembered that it’s one of few Seattle
markets open year-round. Like I said, today it might as well have been summer!
