Honoring Our Final Year in St. Anthony Park

I have a goal to sketch my way across the campus of Luther Seminary during the 2026-27 academic year. This is my way to honor the fact that this is our final year on the Como Avenue campus.

I’m making these sketches in an 8″x8″ watercolor sketchbook by Hahnemühle. I buy them at the best art store in the Twin Cities, Wet Paint.

I hope you enjoy the journey.
