Two For Lunch at Jalisco's by Lynn Cohen

I like the  brevity of this one...it was my second twenty minute drawing there in a row on Thursday.
My friend Cris said I was unkind showing his double chin. Then I had to admit to her that he
didn't really have a double chin but I made the shirt collar before I finished his head so had to
add a chin to get his neck to fit right in his shirt. LOL Sorry guy! But artists have to do what they have to do sometimes.

Pitt Pen ink only on 90lb paper in my drawing book.
My blog? HERE! All my drawings and paintings can be seen in a slide show on my side bar there.

    1. Ann that is so funny. Could be by years end that I'll have caputured them all.

      We went there for dinner last night, which is only the second time I've been there for dinner. I did not have my drawing book and I was so sorry. I sat in a different corner, saw a new perspecitve and will aim for that table and chair on my next lunch visit if it is free. Also there were a lot of families with small children there in the evening. A whole new place/feeling/venue/and prospective models!
