Today I decided to go out and hang around a Second Cup to do some of my homework, while visiting a friend whom works at Second Cup by the Harbourfront. While I was doing some sketches in my sketchbook for life drawing, a woman and her 5 year old son approached me and asked if I coulddo a sketch of her son to remember their day.

So without hesitation I took up the opportunity and did a fairly simple picture of her son using pencil and my brushpen. I made some small chit chat and learned she was from Russia and stuff just so that it wouldn't be super awkward. I didn't really find my drawing overly accurate but I did it quickly and handed it back to her. Soon after she asked me how much she should pay. I responded to her that I did it for free and she was very grateful.

To be honest I didn't know how to charge her and wasn't sure if it was appropriate to handle business inside another establishment. Needless to say, she left and came back after and gave me a Second Cup giftcard

Turns out she got me a 20 dollar gift card for just a simple doodle of her son. Score!
