Windy Day

I was having an exceptionally good day last Monday and stopped at the drake hotel to have a pint on the patio.  Well it happened to be an exceptionally windy day as well and people were losing salads, hats, menus, the whole nine yards. As a group the patio inhabitants all bonded over this and it was like a mini party it was quite fun as often times in city life everyone gets caught up in their own drama. Well I had my sketch book out and tried to capture a little bit of the spirit of the day. the cool part was that during and after the sketch I had a bit of an audience and the drawing was kind of passed around the patio. I find that 80-90 percent of life is unremarkable and predictable but if you can get the most out of that other 10-20% and really appreciate it... well for me that is what life is all about, the 10% thats exceptional.

Just a random thank you to all the people in my life who contribute to the exceptional.

The Kind Of Church I Can Get Behind

This group of napkins is from a great new apertivo bar at Queen and Dovercourt. I have a couple of good friends who work there one of whom designs their excellent cocktail menu and the other who looks excellent in a cocktail dress.  But if you live in the area I highly suggest stopping by for a great experience. if nothing else just check out the design of the bar which, surprise surprise, used to be a church.  The church website is http://www.churchaperitivobar.com and they can also be twitter stalked @ChurchApertivo.

Here is a hasty sketch of Mr. Nyce drawing the previous post. Ya that's right i just went Meta on ya there.  Never know what you are going to get when dealing with someone who is a napkin art hero. And now that i think about it, is it a cityscape if there is only one building?  Hmmm. Food for thought.
