Sketching Again - Starbucks

Here in NY we are having a heat wave. It has been in the low to mid 90s for the past few days...not conducive to sitting outside and sketching. I had a meeting this morning and was planning to go to the pool and sit in the shade to keep cool in the afternoon, but I wanted to sketch something. There is a Starbucks nearby in Patchogue near where my meeting took place where it is possible to back into a space and sit in your car with a view of the store. There is no parking in front of it so you can get a good view. I kept the car running and the AC on while I sketched and painted this because it was just too hot. It was nice to be able to use my Lamy pen again.

  3. Nice action - coming and going - in your Starbucks sketch! I'm sure your Lamy Safari pen is happy to be in service again.

  4. Such a strange world we live in - you are sweltering and I have the heat on and still sit with a sweater on in the house. This is a lovely sketch Joan - I can see the difference the pen makes to your work - great job!
