I don't normally eat out a restaurants because there aren't many that serve organic food (yes, I'm a little uptight about that). So, when I do, I am overwhelmed by the number of people there are to sketch! Don't get me wrong, I will eat out at one if we are meeting people, etc., I just don't go as a general rule. When we were on vacation, we took a grill and a cooler full of food, and for the most part cooked all of our own meals!
For my birthday, my parents are going to take me to the zoo, and my husband is going to take me to the food court at the mall to sketch. They know me too well as these are the best presents they could possibly give me. More opportunities to sketch is all that I want! I don't need clothes or gadgets.
I am going to add watercolor to this sketch, so I wanted to have a record of the before, just in case disaster strikes! The lady at the far left is my sketchcrawl partner, Cecelia, added from photo.
^^ Could totally see that this is going to be a really good one. You've got all the outlines and areas to shade ready, can't wait to see the end result!
ReplyDeleteI know that there could be another present that you might like too... drawing tools?
Oh this is nice! A great drawing of a gathering of people. I love the positions they're in. All together and yet each in his own little world, separate and apart from each other. I like this a lot!
ReplyDeleteI really like your drawings, and this particular one is fabulous. Catching people in a restaurant like that is difficult, methinks... you did a super job! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great sketch! Oh, and Happy Birthday!!! Zoos make me sad, but I do love animals. I'm looking forward to seeing any drawings you might do while you're there! nancy
