Court House Sketches

The gardner,the security police,
in the jury waiting room,
the patio cafe.

When sketching in public places I usually sit with my back against a wall
so people can't peek from behind me.
Do you see the little picture on the left, in the box?
I was drawing the security police when this lady with a baby
walked right up to me, practically touching my sketchbook with her stomach,
SMACK DAB in front of me.
She started reading the bulletin board above my head.
I felt a little uncomfortable . . . . .well . . . .very.

Great place to sketch. It is uncomfy when someone is that close even if I'm NOT sketching!
