Sketchy Everett 17 - Farmers Market

The Sunday Everett Farmers Market has a new home, at the Port of Everett off 13th Street. 

It has grown, and so have the amount of shoppers and eaters! I was nearly taken out - first by a friendly dog and then by a shopper who was making a beeline for some nectarines. I opted to finish the sketch in the safety of the nearby Scuttlebutt Restaurant and Pub, and ventured back outside to paint on the public marina nearby where a seal was my only company. Visible in the background is the newly relocated Weyerhaeuser Building, at home in Boxcar Park. The market is in its 23rd year.

The market organizers also host a Friday Farmers Market at the Everett Mall.
