I had to go to court today as a witness in a trial; it can take all day so I thought some great time to practice sketching.
Sketched this of one of my students (also a witness) in the witness suite:

It's not my best portrait but it felt really good drawing it; there is something really nice about drawing from a live subject, especially someone you know. The three quarter view feels more interesting to draw as well.
I started to draw a portrait of my boss after (also a witness) but some police in the room got paranoid and thought I was sketching them and I was told not to draw anymore... so I had to wait it out like everyone else.
The trial was wrapped up before lunch though so I went to try my hand at landscape sketching in the city.
I found it really hard - which means I should do it more - but I didn't find it that enjoyable. Will try to find a location that I like better next time.

Another quick one because I just watched Game of Thrones:
