Last day - BCN part 20 (last)
Below are my last sketches of Barcelona. It’s unfortunate that I am in my ‘doom’ period right now (see previous post), so I don’t feel like writing the story behind each sketch. My ‘doom’ period just got worst today, I think, when I thought it was getting better yesterday. Therefore, I don’t really feel like drawing or do any Blind Contour for tomorrow. I just hope that I will snap out of this not-so-fine time by Wednesday, next week. That way I might be able to enjoy the Thanksgiving dinner at the Hilton on next Thursday night. If not, well it’s just bad luck this year!
A courtyard somewhere along the c/ Montcada, BCN.
The entrance of Museu Picasso, BCN.
Restaurant l’Economic, BCN. 3 course meal (lunch) incl. a caraf of wine for only 8 euros per person. You can’t get it any cheaper than this! The portion is generous, but the quality matches the price.
The square/view across Collegi d’Arquitectes, BCN.
I might apply watercolor on the two pen en ink sketch above. Those two are crying for some colors, I think. I’ll do it when I have more time.

Beuatiful drawings Evy, with and without colour. Sorry to hear about your doom feelings. Your creativity/productivity levels are so high you do more in a month than I’ve done in a lifetime! Wish I could send a Starbucks your way! Take it easy

I know Barcelona and I could see the entrance for the museum. The restaurant is full of colour and life.
About your “doom period” just me tell you: “today is the tomorrow your worried about yesterday”.
Good weekend.

Sorry for the doom
However, looking at your pictures cheers ME up!! They’re beautiful, as usual.
Now, go draw us all something so ridiculously doom-ridden that it makes you start to laugh! (And if that doesn’t work, add a big hunk of chocolate cake on the side with your next Starbuck’s visit…)

As you move through the cycles of ups and downs, just know that your blog is a bright spot for me! I love these, especially with color added.

Evy, it makes me so happy to see your beautiful work. I hope you can recover some of that yourself. I look at your gate and try to imagine the one Cin did a few weeks ago and the one I did recently in France and see all three of them together. It’s fun to visualize our three approaches side by side.
