As they predicted we had rain yesterday althoug it wasn’t raining when we started out so we headed to the flower market. We sat in front of a jewelry store to sketch one of the stalls. All was fine for about 3/4 of this sketch but then the rain started. We were lucky to be right next to a Starbucks and Suzala scored us a table under the awning that was well covered. I finished this sketch and had time to do a second one. It was pouring so we weren’t going anywhere for a while.
There was a but if a slowdown on the rain so we headed over to Blue Amsterdam which is a restaurant at the top of a mall with 360 degree views. I worked in this sketch before and after lunch. We have been luck that every place we have gone to sketch has been welcoming and never rush us out.
I like the detail! Really brings it to life.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Sandi.
DeleteWonderful sketches Joan, especially the flower market ones - wow! I hope the rain cooled things off for you. And , it is great that people were so nice about you sketching in their places.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Val. The staff at Starbucks kept coming out to check on our progress. They were really nice.
DeleteNice you are welcome all around. The market sketches are so colorful and happy. I like the rooftop sketch, too.
ReplyDeleteDoing the rooftops was fun. I don' t get to do that too often.
