Wish I'd done it.<br />From the above comments, I guess we all need to tuff'n up and get out there! Less consternation, more creation!

Have you investigated a ride on contrivance to get you out more? You could decorate it and really get some attention!origa-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14628501262873862887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276120190007525754.post-12999941212428765392014-05-24T18:24:37.001+10:002014-05-24T18:24:37.001+10:00This comment has been removed by the author.origa-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14628501262873862887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276120190007525754.post-74106377529977045552014-05-24T16:30:05.481+10:002014-05-24T16:30:05.481+10:00I love to see the new paths you are taking.

Sketching out in public is something I've never had the courage to do (and being an obvious foreigner in Japan is guaranteed to attract unwanted attention), but you give me courage to try to find a way to do it that isn't too painful (both literally and figuratively). It would be a crime not to take advantage of our very brief warm season in Hokkaido. Will have to give this lots of thought....<br />dosankodebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04357411708254011194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276120190007525754.post-63245109535101761362014-05-23T23:23:49.578+10:002014-05-23T23:23:49.578+10:00Maybe I am just not a Cafe Society kind of gal but...Maybe I am just not a Cafe Society kind of gal but I do feel that sitting chatting is nicer in ones own nest! I am getting better about drawing in public, frankly most people avoid eye contact ( am I that scary?). Anyway it is fun so enclose yourself in your little "cone of silence"and go for it!origa-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14628501262873862887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276120190007525754.post-61451640145302635342014-05-23T23:09:00.966+10:002014-05-23T23:09:00.966+10:00I think this is excellent -- I love that there'...I think this is excellent -- I love that there's a "Tuff'n Up Gym," it would be sad to see it go. This has inspired me to try to go out and draw similar establishments in DC that will likely fall to new developments.<br /><br />One question, are you discomfited by the coffee mornings, or by the act of sketching in public? I am very much afraid to draw outside -- I feel I'm not very good, and I hate the idea of someone looking over my shoulder. I do more secret sketching, or take photos and draw later. I need to get over it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276120190007525754.post-31031823663983425412014-05-23T20:43:29.001+10:002014-05-23T20:43:29.001+10:00Ah, Sadami, I can only dream of having your skill ...Ah, Sadami, I can only dream of having your skill with watercolours!origa-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14628501262873862887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276120190007525754.post-16963834065996639222014-05-23T20:36:16.022+10:002014-05-23T20:36:16.022+10:00Hi, Oregame, your humour is lovely.
