Last month I traveled to Austin, a little over an hour up the road from San Antonio, and sketched there for the first time. Austin’s downtown has seen an explosion of residential towers go up in the past few years, so the skyline has gone from small and forgettable to a towering assortment of sleek glass skyscrapers.
I then visited Hill’s Cafe on South Congress Ave with my good friend Eddie and indulged in a Texas specialty: Chicken Fried Steak.
