Thanks to a not-yet-ready for pick-up dinner order, I finally got a chance/excuse to draw this back-building view that I found intriguing during my morning train station waits but without enough time to draw.
It was a serene drawing process, accompanied by sounds from train horns and chats of nearby street folks.
Just a few weeks ago the US was suffering from a shortage of consumer toilet papers, so I was a bit surprised to see a pack of unopened toilet papers marked as free on top of a garbage pile while walking in the neighborhood on Sunday evening.
I wonder if that is a sign that the toilet paper production has finally ramped up?
The spot around this bench offers good views from several angles.
I took a reference photo of this view which caught my eye on Tue May 26 early morning at the start of a heat wave.
I came back for on-spot drawing at Wed May 27 evening when the weather cooled down a bit, and finished the drawing indoor with the reference photo after night fall.
Human perception is very sensitive to human faces, and thus small variations in a portrait sketch can cause large perceived differences.
I once saw a groundhog poking its head out of its mound in a nearby county park.
This one was drawn via a reference photo.
This package of face masks took about 40 days to reach me from my parents in Taipei.
