Drawing people in public

Is that your work?

I've done it a few times, people didn't seem to care. If you can find a window seat in a cafe or library or something that is a good spot.

Yes it is, drawn on my phone.

Thanks.

it's fine, just don't be creepy about it. don't make it obvious that you're drawing them, make it look as if you're looking past them and not staring. i'd imagine the only reactions you'll get will be positive

Yea, it's really fun if you haven't done it before. I am really picky though and like to be against a wall so nobody can walk up behind me or see what I'm doing, but most people are really unobservant so you can be really close to them and they still won't notice, and it's quite easy to just seem like your writing or looking at something else. I've never been caught or felt uncomfortable. There's a food court in the office building I work at thats great for drawing the homeless.

Don't draw any young girls. It's creepy.

Yeah, draw young boys

>>2548773
yea be careful around people that seem like they would complain you're not doing anything wrong but you're still invading peoples privacy so pick your models well

I'd do it too, but I don't wanna make a shitty mess of gesture lines barely human-looking and walk around like I'm good.

People will think I'm retarded.

be decent at drawing, if you are not people will just acusee you of being creepy, also dont stare that much

I had to draw people at a coffee shop for a class project. Some girl saw me and got noticeable upset, closed her laptop, packed her shit, and left.

I do this 2-3 times a week.
It really helped me improve my anatomy, expression, and fabric skills.
I'm not shy about it, I'll look right at the person while I'm drawing.
If they get curious I just tell them that I dig their coat and wanted to try to draw it... Or that I wanted to try and draw their hairstyle.
Or that I told myself that I couldn't leave till I drew 10 strangers.
I hand them a business card and explain that I'm practicing.
Most never notice I'm drawing them. Of the few that do and come over to ask about it... They have all been cool once I explain.

Don't you have a petting zoo nearby?

This too, don't do it if you stink because you may get punched in the face.

Draw them with big imaginary cocks, or draw them naked. Then ask them for crit.

I'd be pretty creeped out if I noticed somebody drawing me. If you're gonna draw strangers in public, don't be a fucking autist about it.

bruh, have you ever been punched in the face over it? Stop trying to push your autism on others.
