Sometimes when it isn’t raining (that’s not often round here) I leave the studio a bit earlier and wander into the city centre to do some quick scribbles. I saw these three ladies chatting on the street corner and just a few yards away, huddled in a doorway, one of the street drinkers who hang out on the fringes, so sad.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D View more posts

What was the drinker’s reaction to your drawing him? He seems to be looking straight at you. I know you wouldn’t have made any judgements about him, but he knows some people would.
He was across the road and seemed just to be gazing into the distance. I don’t think he noticed me.
