Coffeeshopped

March 15th, 2010 · 3 Comments

Julia improved on my shot of the girls at the downtown coffeeshop on one of our Saturday-morning bagel outings with this excellent rendering. The lights are realistic, if somewhat (say, 1000%) oversized in relation to the three of us at our table. Vivi was wearing heart-kneed pants; I was not holding my coffee mug over my head like an Olympic torch – nor was the guy at the sofa behind us. Not included in this picture are the twenty or so soaking-wet runners who show up every Saturday and devour coffeecake with whipped cream on top.

    Great drawing! I’ve seen that guy on the couch at the coffee shop many times.

    I should note that Sofa Guy actually looked like that – he was wearing a vest that actually met like that, and he did have shaggy bangs. Not sure what’s going on with the fly of his pants, though.
