A roasted corn stall next to Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. This took about an hour to do so I briefly became part of the street scene, sat in the shade of the ‘Fountain of Ahmet 3rd’, dropping out of the flow of visitors.

Reblogged this on spool2spool and commented:
This brings back memories of many Saturdays in Istanbul.
Thanks for the comment and reblog. I was in Istanbul during Ramadan so ate lots of these during evenings wandering around in the friendly festival atmosphere.
Stunning. I am so envious of your talent. Seriously.
Many thanks for the kind comment. I recommend daily sketching as a way to improve your drawing, and to reflect on everyday life.
lol – I don’t have the talent MD, but I do try to write every day. Horses for courses, right?
Absolutely! It’s the daily bit that’s important… I’m slowly adding more text to my pictures so the sketchbook becomes a journal.
Great idea. You might think about publishing it … when you’re ready. 🙂
