Shoe Sightings and Music!

I thought
this an interesting pair...Woman facing me at next table over had on very heavy eye make up (darker than it shows here even) and casual clothing with hiking boots.
She was talking to the woman with the up swept hair do, dressy outfit and high heels.
Heels worn down so I think she works on her feet wearing them often.


Earlier I was sitting outside in the shade on a bright sunny day that it was...listening to this lone performer. She had a sweet voice.


The people at the table listening to her over their lunches are disabled adults and their helper from an agency a few doors up from my office.

I heard about four songs while drawing, left a tip in her bucket for charity she was supporting...and then went into lunch where the other two women were (in above drawing).

I, of course, painted both after I got home on my patio table in the early evening. Talon's watercolors; black ink .08 Faber-Castell Artist pen.

Sharing my observations and drawings/paintings with Sunday Sketchers. You can see more of those artists work via the icon of the big tree on my sidebar.

Thanks for coming to my blog, for leaving your much appreciated comments and for following my blog.

  11. Wonder if those gals are hair dressers or something. Make up and high heels and boots makes me think that... Well it makes one want to guess. All are wonderful drawings and paintings.

  19. Once you start drawing, isn't it amazing all the details that you notice? I love your observations and it makes me feel like I'm sitting there with you!

    You know, I'm not much of a 'out and about' person, but seeing your work really makes me want to come visit you and hang out and sketch!!!
