Medici Meditation

We went to the Medici fountain today.

Staring at the still water is good for you, they say.

Here is what I brought back...
Drawing on a wet napkin

Drawing a chair, till it was taken

Than another chair

A couple talking (believe me)
A tree
Drawing with Nathalie

Drawing the other-side people

Drawing on prepared paper

And This time I brought some photos










This one give me a real sense of vertigo
















Till Nextime!

Sleeping at the Pasteur Metro

I was in a rush from somewhere to somewhere, and then saw this guy sleeping beside the chairs in the Metro station.
It looked so graphic, the black leather and pants with the white hands tucked in between his legs for warmth, alongside the white teeth of the chairs in the black mouth of the huge ad.
His horizontal position vs. the chairs that invite a vertical one.

While I drew him, I had to take long breaths, since Metros passed in both directions between us.

No one sat on the chairs while he was there.

A security guard gently woke him up, and left, he woke up, opened his eyes, looked around, lay in the same position for two more minutes, and left (there was a Metro passing, I didn't see where he want).

When he disappeared, the newly-arriving passengers sat in the chairs...
