The Lady and a Shih Tzu dog

I looked at the center clock and it was about 6:18pm. Got 12 minutes to spare before I head out to Track 19 this evening.  A nice subject to sketch is this lady with a Shih Tzu dog pet.  I was attracted to the dog and the lady not minding the good dog.  She was trying to fiddle with her phone at the bridge toward the Main Concourse from the Vanderbilt Hall.  I planted myself at the corner edge of the the Hudson River Line ticket counters section.  Lucky me, she moved over next to my spot!  Sketched the dog first then her.  Added the arch and distant entryway last.

Sketchwaiting....at the MD Office

I scheduled two MD appointments yesterday; one in the morning and one in the afternoon.  This dapper gentleman was waiting for his morning appointment too at the ENT office in Stamford.  I noticed his cane and that was where I started this sketch.  Soon after, I was called in to be seen by my doctor.

Sketchwaiting....at the library

While waiting for my turn at the Greenwich Library for the free basic tax preparation services offered by the VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance).  I signed up yesterday and was second to the last on the list.  Glad that I'm done with tax filing this year!  Naturally, I did some sketches of the people who were there for the same reason.  Sketchwaiting is always fun!

The Mother and daughter on the 8:48am train

On Wednesday, I had another chance to sketch the same mother and daughter I sketched two weeks ago.  This time, I made sure that I gifted it to her instead.  She was very much surprised and happy to keep it. 

 

A young English family

I boarded the train to Grand Central Terminal at Harrison station and found a vacant two seater across from this young English family of four.  I find it pleasurable to hear the British accent in their normal conversation and seeing them engaged together the whole trip.

Two commuters on Line #4

On the way to the Brooklyn Museum last Saturday,  I took the Green Line #4 from Grand Central Terminal to the Eastern Parkway-Brooklyn Museum station, about 11 stops away.  I stood by the exit doors and sketched these two unsuspecting commuters.  Watercolor wash added a few days later.
