sketchbook 04/24/10


While waiting for a friend at the St.Lawrence Market, I had a chance to black line this scene in of Peter's bulk foods. I had a chance to briefly talk to Peter and he told me he came to Toronto from Greece in 1968 as an 18 year old and started this store in the Market in 1975. Impressive that it's survived over all these years considering the economic ups and downs.

Unfortunately I didn't have time to colour it in and to be honest there was so much colour going on here that I don't remember any one colour other than the lady's blue jeans and her green apron.

I have so many drawings that are not colored, that I haven't been posting, figuring they should be colored first. But it looks great this way too! Very nice. I never remember the colors - sometimes I snap a quick shot with my cell phone when I have to leave, sometimes I just wing it later. Great new avatar, btw.
