It has been so sunny and so warm that sketching outside has become extremely necessary. I cycled downtown again at lunchtime today, and sketched the very Davis cafe, the Delta of Venus. It’s not a place I go myself (not really my cup of herbal tea). As I sketched though, a man cycling by said to me, pointing at a fire hydrant, “there’s the hydrant over there, draw that!” Or words to that effect. Either way, I was officially recognized, ‘that bloke who draws fire hydrants’. But I haven’t drawn a fire hydrant in months!!
petescully 
I love this scene, with the trees up high and the outside eaters. Very California feel to this. I’m looking forward to it again this summer.
cheers Rob! This is a very California place, and Davis specifically…
Can I buy this drawing?
Hi! No, this one’s in a sketchbook. I did do another, but that one sold. If you are interested though, I could draw a new one for sale?
Awesome? How much?
I meant: awesome! :-)
