Shoreline Watercolor and Sketchers is a Plein Air Watercolor group that can be found painting in the Shoreline area most Mondays, with proper distancing, masks and wipes on hand.

The French term en plein air refers to outdoor painting, which allows artists to capture landscapes and views in natural light.

Recently the group was painting at the corner of 165th St and 5th Ave in the business district of the Ridgecrest neighborhood where the Crest, 7/11, and Cafe Aroma are.

It's a good location, with interesting buildings as well as local businesses with food, coffee, and customer restrooms. The parking lot provides plenty of space to sit at least 6 feet apart, often more.

And the results speak for themselves!
