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.
