Whenever I sketch on University Avenue in Palo Alto, CA, I feel a bit self-conscious. I'm not sure why. Maybe the fancy shops and people make sitting on the curb for sketching out of place. Anyway, I don't sketch in downtown Palo Alto often. But this afternoon I knew I had to stop to sketch when I saw the beautiful afternoon sun shinning on the square.
I drew the umbrella first and I think it reflects how awkward I felt at the beginning of sketching. I felt better once I was absorbed in drawing and the music from the busker. Hmm, a nice warm Californian afternoon.
