The People I See

Being a regular at a Cafe' I gets some little perks, I get the couch to sit on the rest is chairs. a long coffee table to put my stuff, and a great hostess( she is actually great to everyone). I get a get place to people watch and draw they when they least suspect. I do get caught too, a couple guys from Turkey named Kuddis and Ozcan saw me spying then were happy that I was drawing them, it still didn't keep them still.
Speakin of which is probably the hardest thing about what i am doing most people don't keep still, it is really not thier job any way. I like doing this gecause they are naturally relaxing and being who they are. This has helped me get faster in my sketching, get the main gestures or body language then working from memory. A few times I get I steal a photo with my itouch and work a bit from that. This is from a couple days at the cafe'.

This is the view from where I sit on a comfy couch

Then I went inside, and sat in the Basspro's little coffee shop. it is too bad I couldn't get close to the Lion or the Polar Bear. Basspro does have a weird feel, like your being looked at, like the animals want to attack you. The stuff animal was the zoo of their day, people would come from all around to see how animals from other lands looked. Try explaining a platypus to anyone without a visual. I have a friend named Christina, she is from Spain, tell about when she was sitting at a cafe in Deep Elum, a rat the size of dog scared her. it carried other dogs on it's back. Yeah it was a possum but i have the internet.

Hey. here is the Deer Head on the wall.
