This area being so touristic is always busy. Lots of people and traffic. It turned out I sat in a busy corner at the opposite corner of this image to sketch it. The fact that I was smelling of the pollution of the buses and cars passing by, in one of the most ecologically conscious cities in the U.S. was ironic to me. A tourist approached to me to asked me for directions to a place I had never heard of, and my immediate response was:-I'm from Sshikkago. I tried to mimic the Geico Lizard speaking like a Chicagoan. Oh boy! Was it funny! A tourist teasing a tourist! It may be she didn't expect this sort of answer but hey! I was in a good mood. I continued with my sketch with no further interruptions.

I've been here (as recently as 2 years ago) and this sketch is certified 100% accurate (although probably about 10 times more people). Too bad I'm not a notary public.
ReplyDeleteYou are perfectly right Wes! Lots of people, thanks for you certification!! Hahaha.
DeleteI was just there this summer & you all are right about the number of people! I really like the style and colors you've chosen. It's such a fun sketch!
