Draw comic portraits on a short picnic

Jia-Hao Lin

I'd like a short outing with my partner and another couple, with time to sit and draw one another. We can agree which pictures stay private. A modest route, a shared meal, and perhaps a nose with unusually ambitious engineering.

Only as much as each person is comfortable with. We can draw invented characters instead. A picnic is a poor place to discover someone dislikes being caricatured. Will the paper survive a breeze?

On “Draw comic portraits on a short picnic”, I like the idea, but I cannot promise to turn up. Can I stay in the conversation without saying yes? I work some weekends.

That gives me something concrete to consider. I want to keep “Draw comic portraits on a short picnic” manageable for the people involved. Yes. Staying curious is enough for now. I would rather have an honest maybe than a yes that makes someone uncomfortable.

On “Draw comic portraits on a short picnic”, would a Facebook conversation help find local company, or would you rather agree the details here?

I would use a wider conversation to find interest, then keep one clear place for the actual arrangements. I do not want people comparing several conflicting versions. That is how I see “Draw comic portraits on a short picnic”.

On “Draw comic portraits on a short picnic”, yes. I want to keep track of what was workable, what took more effort than expected and what I would leave out next time.
