Coffee Mugs

People in coffee shops (for the most part) will leave you to your own space, so doing these drawings is quite do-able. So respectful of personal space are they, that one of these fellows was merely a foot away from me on the same bench. Oblivious. I think. Can you tell which one? If he was not oblivious then he was tolerating me like the Nile Crocodile tolerates the Egyptian Plover: I got my drawing done, and he got his teeth cleaned he got his 15 minutes of fame.

An unintended theme in this set was the forward placing of the sitter's hand. I had nothing to do with this.

Some coffee shop people will invade your personal space and insist on seeing the peculiar thing you are doing in your book. Some are polite, and I hem and haw. Some are pushy and crotchety and they deserve to see what they really look like.

If I don't post for a while, check the hospital, just to make sure.
