Usually, when I draw at public places, I try to avoid people seeing me at action, hiding behind a table in coffee shops. Today I dared to draw in the middle of the street. It was a fantastic experience! I went together with my friend Harriet, so it gave me some courage. People were passing off, stopping from time to time and giving us some comments. It was quit nice. Suddenly a young soldier girl, who stopped to look at us drawing, asked: "would you be interested in drawing me?" Obviously, we agreed. We drew quick sketches and gave them to the girl. She was very pleased! And so were we! Now I feel that I'm starting to be a real urban sketcher!
