Baranof Apartments
750 Edition 7 1/2 x 9 1/4

I thought I knew the old town of Sitka pretty well, when I discovered this small and very old apartment building on a little traveled sidestreet. I debated sketching it when a small dog, sniffing around, came up the sidewalk, which livened the scene somewhat. Next, two tenants, arms about each other, stepped outside. Now I had a painting possibility! I especially admired the man's cowboy boots and sweeping sideburns.
