sketchbook 03/17/10


It was such a warm, beautiful day today, that I had to get out there and draw. I decided on the round house down by the lakeshore. It once was the building that housed all the trains during our "golden age" of train use. However, now the building itself houses a brewery in the east part of the structure and a furniture store in the west. I'm not complaining about the brewery but the furniture store decided to wreck a beautiful, industrial, concrete silo with their name perched onto top of it...Whatever happened to tasteful, subtle design? The drawing captures the bottom portion of the silo but fortunately my non-existent sense of proportion allowed for the omission of the name.
