I’ve been trying to spend time practicing drawing the things that I’m NOT good at (animals, vehicles) and less time drawing the things I’m pretty good at (people, buildings, household objects). Today, sitting in Peet’s Coffee looking out the window, I drew bicycles and cars.

This led to a conversation with the gentleman sitting next to me, about drawing and graphic recording…and it turns out that Dan is a musician! We talked about the idea of my drawing during one of his concerts – wouldn’t that be fun? (Check him & his band Full Steem out here.)

After that I ended up chatting with another lady nearby who’d eavesdropped on our conversation. I always seem to end up in interesting conversations with folks in that particular coffee shop. If I sit in a coffee shop alone it is usually to do some work or read…Maybe I need to start going there more often just for the conversation with strangers.
