Drawing OuT and ABouT! By Lynn Cohen

Starting my week at Starbucks is great, especially when there is a gaggle of gals standing around talking long enough for me to draw them all!!! Oh, and one guy too!

Hanging out in Davis is always fun and delicious too when it's salmon salad for lunch at this place.
Nice to run into an old friend there too!

Meanwhile, back at Starbucks. I needed to practice my drawing of letters, and the four guys there were an added bonus for listening into their conversation about a wedding and drawing them too!

An  assignment in Sketchbook Skool (boot kamp) took me downtown on a rainy day to draw from inside my car, these old buildings downtown.

And on the following day I sat in front of the long narrow window by our front door and looked through the rain at my across the street neighbors house and drew what I could see.

Later that week found us at the German Bakery where this group of students where all hunched over their computers; as was their teacher. He is the one wearing the tie-dyed shirt.

And when I got done drawing them I still wanted to draw more so I looked out the window at this view and captured it in pen and colored pencils.

Still working on lettering, I used this poem by A.A. Milne from the original Winnie the Pooh stories about snow. I thought it appropriate to do this for my friends and family, who are living under piles of snow in Denver, Minnesota, and the on the East Coast!

It seems there is always room and time in my week to draw a selfie. I know she does not look a lot like me, but I like her nonetheless!

Still working on Lettering for Book Kamp in SBS, this for a lesson from Koosje in Amsterdam.

And then our co-founder of Sketchbook Skool, Danny Gregory, who is celebrating the publication of his latest book: Art Before Breakfast, asked us to draw ours for him. You can buy this book on Amazon.com.  I am waiting for my pre-ordered book to arrive any day now.

Danny and Koosje both have blogs, look them up, and enjoy their art!
