Pike Place Musicians by Mark Ryan in Seattle, Washington.
When urban sketchers make you wish that you were there with them when they sketched their work – they’ve done their job. Ryan wins urban sketcher of the month with this piece from me.
I really appreciate the way that Ryan, although doing simple subjects, tries to work in some depth and context with the limited room he has. The shadow and subtle background on the left – the ground, dog in a suitcase, and hard contrast wall in the background on the right. All of this provides enough depth and context to really make the musicians stand out.
Love it!
