Sidewalk Dining
The restaurants have moved dining out onto
the sidewalks for the summer. A sketch in front of a pizza place in my home
town.

Excellent the joys of summer, I use to love these places, happy memories, it's a fantastic sketch
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to watch so many people together making the most of a good day.
DeleteThank you
These are the kinds of scenes that elicit a sense of melancholy and loneliness in me. I feel so separated, just a watcher. But hey, what is art without an emotional response :)
ReplyDeleteEmotional responses are everywhere. There is art in emotions, in loneliness, in people walking alone, together, in friends laughing over a meal. It’s all art. Think about the gifts you have to express so well these emotions. Most can’t.
DeleteI like watching and drawing, or thinking of drawing people in setting like this. Sometimes memories are sparked. More often than not my curiosity takes over and I get lost picking out characters and fabricating stories for them. In this case it was the waitress and the women in the foreground who wouldn’t stop looking at me, as I tried not to be so obvious as I photographed them.
Being in the present helps… Now you have me remembering how long its been since I’ve had pizza with someone at this place, just down the street…
Une scène de vie que j'apprécie particulièrement... un moment de détente... en couple, entre amis... des rires, des paroles encore et encore...
ReplyDeleteUne merveilleuse composition.
gros bisous
Food and drink with friends is a great way to enjoy the day.
DeleteThank you
these situations don't make me lonely, they are busy together friends, and I slowly take a photo...and I'm never lonely
