Tokyo, Japan [RESULT]
We Tokyo team went to Kawagoe aka Koedo, Saitama prefecture this time.( One of the most well preserved old towns in Japan.) We enjoyed good weather today, so I really got the most of this opportunity. I love this town!
Well, here are my results:
Udon noodle that I had for lunch.

Old, elegant and lively street.

Kawagoe-1 by kumi matsukawa, on Flickr
A bell tower called “ Toki no Kane”.

It is such a nostalgic site that I couldn't help using colors that look like a sepia photo.

Late afternoon, we got together in a Soba restaurant and there I had cherry blossom flavored ice cream and rice-flour dumpling.
It was SO yummy!

Then some of us who still had eager to draw went to a bar (before 18:00 till 19:00!) and had more sketching.

Re: Tokyo, Japan [RESULT]
Excellent results Kumi. I love your first one, the street view with pedestrians and cars. I wish I was there.
Re: Tokyo, Japan [RESULT]
I love the drawings of food especially.
Re: Tokyo, Japan [RESULT]
Great work Kumi - I like the pedestrians as well. And the bar scene - makes me wish I was there!
Looking forward to seeing more,
Cheers!

Kumi-san! Great sketches!
I went to Kamakura. It was very good weather!
This one I made in Meigetsu-in.
The old stone torii.
Then I went to the little restaurant. I liked the interior very much.

Thanks for your kind words, martine kervagoret, vincent desplanche, AimerTour, Kim.M., heliodor
When any one of you have chance to visit Japan (Tokyo) and willing to visit there, I'd be very happy to hang around this place together
Tasha_Voit - These are so beautiful and fresh! I love each ambience a lot! We both visited old towns in different prefectures.

In the Udon restaurant called【春夏秋冬】
Warehouse style buildings and the visitors.
The soba restaurant where we had some sweets/ soba noodle.
I found it interesting that the roof top has some long thin mustache look objects.
A bar “Backbone ” panel.
Sketching T-nora.
Sketching Maki.
Sketching Keith.

What a beautiful place to draw... the architecture is very beautiful. And the drawings are outstanding!
I like them all, but the portraits inside the bar are my favourite.
