Port Townsend artist Kelly Doran has spent a number of mornings sitting in downtown PT, sketching out views of the city and bay while sipping tea.
Kelly is a teacher at Peninsula College and has had a long career in theatrical stage design, lighting and sound. She previously was the technical director at Centrum and taught theatre at Tacoma School of the Arts.
