Yesterday I relaxed, did homey stuff and went shopping. I loathe shopping so like to soften the blow by going early and starting the whole thing with a croissant and an excellent coffee for breakfast. I was sitting in the café when I spotted this couple, looking like “Brief Encounter” within a Mondrian painting. I love everything about this, the colours, the light and the understated drama of their meeting. I love people watching and could happily while away hours just sitting in a café, with my sketchbook, watching the world go by.
