Restaurant time!

Over the Christmas break I had to create 15 drawings, 5 of each being from a different location. I wanted the first 2 locations to be somewhere completely new to me, I wasn't so worried about the 3rd.  The first location I decided to get some drawings in when I was out having dinner with some friends at a new restaurant. These drawings are all quite quickly done because I didn't spend longer than a few minuets on them, I kept these five pretty simple with just pencil.

Even though I didn't incorporate colour into these, I did consider the aspects of the surrounding environments that are not noticeable through just these drawings alone. For example, with it being a restaurant there was a lot of deep reds, browns and purples around (apparently these rich colours have proven to make people more hungry..) 

The other obvious thing I noticed about the environment was that it smelt AMAZING. Food is the best. It was a fairly relaxing environment, I could hear the clattering from the kitchen but thats a given in a restaurant I suppose. I tried to draw from as many different perspectives as I could from just my seat alone.
