Seattle didn't disappoint! Everywhere you look there is another painting! Setting up my gear is always a challenge, so many things for me to consider. Is there an awning with shade to stand under? Will the sun move and blind my palette? Is there water dripping over my head? Are there too many panhandlers lurking about? Will all the tourists have enough room to walk without tripping over my easel? Am I blocking a doorway? Am I near an area where people take a break to smoke? Fortunately, there weren't too many mishaps in Seattle. The tourists behaved, only one or two street people talked to me and best of all, many people rallied around my painting with positive comments! Can't wait for Joe's next business trip. Honey, I'm coming with you! Have paint, will travel!
