So cool! I can just imagine you with your phone on the subway. Very impressive, considering how much random movement there is!

Thanks! Some of the express trains are tough because the go so fast and the car moves. usually, it's not that much movement.

One of the things I most enjoy about watching you draw, Liza, is seeing where you start — with a man’s back, for instance, rather than his face. ✍️🎉

I never know where I will start. But this one, it was a feeling of his bulk that was best gotten with his back arch over his phone. thanks, Linda!

So fun to watch your process! I always try to guess what part of the drawing your very first line is going to become. .. not a very good guess today 🫤 Happy Hump Day 🐪

Thanks! You and LInda enjoy the same observation. I acutally cannot predict either.

Styluses (SP?) don't work on an iphone, at least not well! And the Apple pencil doesn't work at all on the iPhone!

I loved the puzzles in this drawing: we're on the local or the express? I decided express because if the timing between message downloads. And what a feat to draw so much in 24-minutes!

It was less time than that, to be honest! I think....maybe not! What a good sleuth you are:)

I keep seeing people that should

be drawn! Like the very short man doing the salsa with a tall woman. Wonderful dancers and wonderfully dressed. If only I could draw..

I agree. After I drew this man, or rather as I was drawing him, two little girls came on with their caregiver and I was dying to draw them. Then a couple of musicians got on the train and I wanted to draw them, and the reaction from the 5 year old to the music. As well as a group of teen girls to their left! So much to see yesterday.
