Being the magpie that I am, I SO wanted to offer you (and myself) something colorful and shiny yesterday and today, but, alas, it's raining buckets. ('Il tombe des cordes,' for those of us brushing up on our French :D.) So here's what I have instead, some cafe drawings in graphite with a smidge of watery color. Tomorrow is another day.
I love looking at your sketchbooks so much!

You draw the most nosey noses...really enjoying these!

Thank you, thank you! It has been a while since I've drawn people, so these were actually a lot of fun! Teri, the people in Paris WILL look different, you can be sure ;D. Marly, it was carrot and ginger soup. A bit early for pumpkins. I'm glad you all like the black and white sketches, too--there'll always be lots of them coming from my hands and brain ;D,

Oh, I love cafe drawings! And yours are superb. Such attention to detail and I like the bright spots of colour. Can't wait to see the ones you do from Paris!

I love the bright and shiny things, but you do such a beautiful and interesting job on these type sketches, it satisfies the need for eye candy!

Oh and thanks for the French expression - I may even use it today!
