So good Satu - fully of vitality

Looks fabulous as well Satu!! I think that we're braver in tackling difficult subjects this way.

And an amazing result! I love its vibrancy and immediacy. Somehow, it reminds me of an urban sketchers' sketch.

Et c'est toi sur le velo ! Quite crazy! These are all such fun; I look foreward to seeing them.

Has a very French feel ( and does show a good understanding of the French way of driving!). Great fun drawing which engages you straight away because it has been done in that ' thinking outside the box' free and expressive style.

Thank you very much Stephen, Michael, Louise, Seok, Avril and Thea for your lovely comments! A third of my heart belongs to Paris which was my home for many happy years.

Another triumph Satu! Cars are a taboo for me too but perhaps I can do it using this technique, who knows? I love the way the cyclist is looking down at the taxi driver!

Key atmospheric. You one liners are going from strength to strength.

This is superb Satu - like others have said it has a great French feel to it.

I was looking for drawing material and found this lovely black and white photo of traffic in Paris. Upside down it went and I drew a car! Never thought to be able to do it and a bicycle too! Amazing method!!
