Noodles Inc. sketchbook entry

This is a drawing I did a few weeks ago while I was in Chicago. I was eating at Noodles Inc. (Veg. Pad Thai is the best)... anyway this guy was sitting next to me so I decided to sketch him while I was waiting. I love to try to capture the essence of a person with as few lines as possible. I am trying to get a poetic feel with this drawing. I am also interested with the notion of the "sacrement of the present", trying to become aware of my surroundings in the present moment. It is amazing how unaware we really are. This kind of awareness in so necessary to good drawing. I am pleased with how this turned out.
