Pastries and Planes

Gathering in True North Bakery right next to the runway at Skagit Regional Airport, proved to be the perfect location to sketch cool planes (and have some of the yummiest fresh-baked pastries around).

Anacortes Sketchers in Arizona

We really never stop sketching!  Lots of us love travel sketching when we're on the road, and this month there was a wonderful reunion of 3 Anacortes Sketchers one afternoon in Tucson's spectacular Sabino Canyon.

Mari was on vacation and joined Greg and Kate who both sketch with us in Summer months here in Anacortes.  Different palettes for this meet-up but a reunion of great Anacortes sketching friends.

Mari's sketchbook and well-used travel watercolor kit.

Greg sketching along the creek that flows down through the canyon.

Still Life Sketching at Catherine's

Big thanks to Catherine for hosting our sketching gathering today.  How fun it was with the sun streaming in her big windows plus she'd set up several pretty still life scenes to give us lots to sketch.

Sunny Sketching in Early March

We always know we'll enjoy sketching at Christianson's Nursery - especially during the Winter when we can sketch inside one of the greenhouses.  However this week we had a big bonus - sun and warmth so we could sketch outside by the glorious selection of Helebores - on March 2!
