haha. I have to explain when I make good work? Sure here goes:

I found a database of thousands of public domain photos from the 50's-70's and I am adapting some of the best of them (of the few hundred I've been able to get through so far) into a series of illustrations I am calling "Street Scenes". I sold the first two at stumptown and I will probably have 6 or 7 of them to sell at MOCCA.

I'm trying to make sure that I'm not just copying the photos verbatim. What I like best about this one is how I completely omitted the background, but implied the space the characters inhabit through nothing more than the placement of the two cars in the drawing.
