japanese garden sketch

i grew up in west seattle and spent a lot of time in the parks out that way--lincoln park, schmitz park (and alki, duh)--so i never spent much time in the central/north seattle parks. i  moved across the street from the arboretum a few months ago and it's been fun to explore...here's a watercolor sketch from the japanese garden.
