Cafe at Amsterdam Hipódromo Condesa, Mexico City

 

Pen&ink and watercolor on A6 cotton Hahnemüle sketchbook

This cafe at Condesa neighborhood is in the corner of Amsterdam and Ozuluama. I wanted to show in this sketch, not only the one of many cafes and restaurants in the area but how many green areas this area has with so many mature trees and overgrown bushes, this is a shady paradise for summer. Out the windows, instead of drawing all the plants and trees, I colored it in green and suggested the trees with some leaves. The art deco floor is part of the building where the cafe is. In fact Condesa is notoriously know for its art deco buildings.
