I spent the morning today in a hospital waiting
room with a family member.  Luckily I brought
my iPad along.  And though I usually like the
drawing app because it's a good way to produce
colour on the run, I thought I'd draw with black
line instead.  I've never used just black before
and loved how it felt.

I draw with my finger, (I don't want a stylus, or
to draw this way most of the time) and I like
the way that distorts or alters the drawing.  The great
thing about drawing on one is that no one suspects
you are drawing.  Everyone just sees the iPad as
a game console, or YouTube viewer and that
does help.

 So here they are -- quick sketches of people
in the waiting room.

And all is well.  We were out and into the
first really warm, and bright day, just before lunch.
I've started a little painting, but it isn't ready
for your eyes.

Have a taking it line by line day
