In Guatemala City, Zona 10, along Calle 13, there's an upscale mall named Fontabella Plaza. There's a lovely little Italianate fountain in the center (the fonte bella, beautiful fountain). Collonades, umbrella-ed tables, posh stores and international eateries. Amazing gelato.
And wonderful scenes to be sketched. In my new Faber-Castell sketchbook, with India ink markers, because I just couldn't wait another day to start sketching again. I'd rather have a mini watercolor set. Or aquarelle pencils.
But you know, for an artist, the act of drawing and creating is the end, not the means.
So this isn't my best-ever sketch. It would benefit from a color wash. No apologies, just facts.
But I'm drawing again.
And that's what matters.
