people sketching - a near tragedy
Recently I found a gem. I little patio on the notorious corner of Hastings and Main street, downtown Vancouver. Hippies, tourists, yuppies, junkies, and even a transvestite (page 2). But seriously the diversity of race, age and action was fucking fantastic. Why the past tense? Well, I brought my good buddy Kevin with me last Friday. A few bad ass drug dealers decided we were police trying to draw them and sounded some sort of ghetto alarm which instantly exploded the corner into panicky chaos. Long story short Kevin and I almost got stabbed trying to get out of there. Bummer. The end of a good thing. Here's some of the sketches....I started in pencil and quickly moved to super fun brush marker.
