Top of Capel street

Don't be foold by the lovely sunshine. It was still not that warm in the shade and wind. Which is why I picked a seat in the sun, even if it meant that I wasn't going to sketch the designated building. Does that sound familiar? I'm not great at following instructions, or even just suggestions. Not anymore. I used to be such a good girl, doing what was expected of me. It took me long enough to get to this stage.

What really caught my eye wasn't the jewellers/pawn shop, but the shop at the top of the road, still far enough that I couldn't really see the details. Perfectly framed by street planting and other buildings. Then I decided I wanted to sketch the sketchers, and the spectacular lilies. Not sure about the overall result, but I'm glad I experimented. 

Fude pen (Platinum Carbon ink), Inktense and Ecoline markers.
