Hurwundekai cafe, cambridge heath rd nr hackney rd
went past this 'new' cafe place near me in old car sales place (open since 2009 apparently - that me the ever observant artist - i didn't even know that about 1/2 mile from me is a street full of gallery spaces - shows as major london gallery area on map). Looked interesting and had sign saying life drawing classes, has amazing front outside area - sand and kids play things and tables. it's website says is owned by a south korean and he also owns funky boutique and hairdressers. http://hurwundeki.com in other parts of trendy east london. so i went there yesterday but they have reduced opening hours to day time and no more classes for now - don't know what that means. anyway the owners child was asleep on the sofa so i drew him. got in 10mins before he moved. cute kid.

This is one of the things I miss about London, or living in a Western city, things get made over. In Asia, if it is old, it gets torn down and rebuilt. O love that whole revamped, home-made feel to places like that.
