This week’s Urban Sketchers Flickr group theme is “Students.”
As we all know, I spend a lot of time sketching people of all ages in coffee shops, some of whom are probably students. But to be more precise in
fitting the theme, I decided to go to the Northgate branch of the Seattle
Public Library, where I thought my chances of catching a student actually
studying (as opposed to simply surfing on the free wi-fi tide) would be higher.
My subject in question fit the profile: increasingly slumped posture, frequent
yawning and stretching, laptop on the table, backpack on the floor. My keen
powers of observation and deductive reasoning zeroed in on the key clue: On the
laptop screen was a text-based document – not Facebook. Bingo.
