Last month we visited two weddings - great opportunity to eat, dance and... sketch ;) The first one - Georgian family: The second one - French-Moroccan family: It was fun! I don't think I would like to show my sketches to their's "models", thought ;)

Hospital sketches

Image
I spent almost all last week in the hospital with my son, who had an accident and got hurt at his hand. These sketches where done while waiting to him to get from the surgery - the only thing that helped me to calm down a bit. The surgery went well :) Religious woman is praying and a man from Azerbaijan is telling his story Jews and Arabs are waiting together religious man is praying, Russians are telling stories Shai's watching "House" at the hospital  friends came to visit I don't recommend you to get to hospitals, but once you're there - there are plenty of stories and authentic characters to sketch. And sketching passes time in a best way :) Take care!

I love this beautiful corner of Tel Aviv, full of nostalgic atmosphere, colorful characters, and authentic food. Everybody found there a lot of nice stories, and here are mine: everything in pita at the corner of the Hacarmel market the dog - the king of the street humus " Shlomo & Doron" two guys with strong gazes Friday morning meeting of friends - they were happy to provide their names ;) The time flied fast as ussual, and the sketchcrawl ended with a nice meal (of course!). Sorry, I didn't sketch the excellent soup and humus I had!

At "Beta and Grega"

Image
Beta and Grega - is the name of the coffee shop at the corner of Alenbi and Levontin streets in Tel Aviv. This area of the south of the city is full of contrasts - beautiful renovated Bauhaus buildings and crumbling walls full of graffiti, trendy coffee shops full of celebs and beggars passing through. As you can understand - perfect place for sketching and finding stories. it was Nathan's last day with his new beard ;) Cowboy in Tel Aviv Sima - woman that lives at the street, everybody knows her, asked us to draw her
