Paris is .... a book?

Paris is many things, and soon, I hope, those will include a book with my drawings, on the subject of Paris Cafes. I just spent two weeks tramping, trudging, wandering, hiking, climbing, exploring Paris, searching out cafes of all sorts, fancy and modest, in interesting corners and sites, filling 2 1/2 sketchbooks with my on-site sketches.

The book is now taking shape; I'm working on it in my studio in the Loire Valley, about 1 1/2 hours south of Paris. I'll post more when there is more to show and tell, but I'm liking the way it's going. There will be color along with the line drawings, with fun glimpses of people as well as all that wonderful Paris architecture, and with text about background, history, and observations. My 'Paris Cafes' will be a personal, quirky stroll around Paris - I think as much fun for a reader as for me!

What I've posted here are raw drawings, with my margin notes. I may leave some of those notes in - what do you think?
More to follow soon.....
