So I drove down to Fred Meyer's the other day to get some sushi for lunch. I love sushi, but I'm the only one in my family, other than my son-in-law, and he is always working (poor guy), so I get it on my own, occasionally. I like the sushi at Fred Meyer's. The lady who makes it always uses fresh products, is very helpful, and since she speaks with a thick oriental (Japanese?) accent I figure she knows what she is doing, so the sushi has to be authentic. When I approached the sushi bar I noticed she wasn't there, and no one seemed interested in stepping up to help me, so I picked up a box with 12 pieces of eel (my fav), purchased it, along with a medium diet cola, and had a great lunch.
Afterwards I found a tall table in the coffe lounge and sketched the view in front of me. It's the one up above.

What a great day you had! Your favorite lunch and your favorite pastime! The sketch is wonderful. I love the scenes you choose!
ReplyDeleteThis is very impressive! All the detail is just wonderful. nancy
ReplyDeleteLOL! I remember Fred Meyers from when we lived in Portland, but I don't remember sushi! There have been some changes . . . and your sketch is great!
ReplyDeleteI just love sushi (had some yesterday : ) Its great place you went too to sketch (and have good lunch), and I like the almost tone on tone with the exception for the ladies jacket. Great work!
ReplyDeleteAwesome perspective, beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteWow--I am impressed with all of the detail you included yet keeping the sketch clean and easy to "read". The perspective is great too.
ReplyDeleteIf you do enough of these, maybe you'll get a regular feature in the magazine!! Another excellent sketch!
