[one of my favorite illustrators, alex eben meyer, has been sharing coffee shop-inspired sketches with us every morning this week. today is his final installment and i just wanted to say thank you- it's been a pleasure to have you, alex! you can check out more of alex's work right here and click here to see alex's full d*s set from this week]
hi d*s readers, i just wanted to thank everyone for joining me for a cup of coffee and a muffin this week, it’s been a pleasure. also, a very special thank you to the d*sponge herself for inviting me to guest-sketch-blog.
if anyone has a favorite coffeeshop that they think i would enjoy visiting and drawing at, please mention it in the comments section, there will be plenty more coffeeshop drawings in the future.
coffee shop above // sweet melissa patisserie: i finally am including a coffee shop that is south of the williamsburg bridge. what better way to conclude sketchblogging for d*s than coffee with the *sponge herself, grace. we had a lovely time sitting in the backyard chatting, catching up and sipping iced coffee. while i didn’t actually have a muffin, the day was beautiful and the company excellent.

coffee shop // broadway & 23rd st: okay, not a coffee shop, but i am a huge fan of the new manhattan no-car islands (pedestrian plazas?) along broadway. comfortable chairs and tables, great views of buildings and people, and plenty of choices of food and drink. can one ask for more?

the entire series is both inspired and inspirational. thank you!
I’m very sad to hear this is your last installment. thanks for brightening my week with such wonderful illustrations.
Alex should sell these as prints! I would def. buy them!
I have so much enjoyed this series! Very sad to see it come to an end. As an artist it inspires me to sketch more, and to know that I only have to go as far as my local coffee shop to find an interesting composition. Thank you so much Alex!
They are so cute! Love them.
Wonderful sketches, I am very happy Grace has introduced us to your work. If you are ever in the Pacific NW, you might want to check out Tacoma’s Satellite Coffee above Supernova Hair & Tattoo.

If you’re ever in Milwaukee, Wi, go to Alterra on the Lake to draw. It’s in a great historical building. Great coffee, too
