If you've ever been to Spain, you'll know El Corte Ingles
(Canadians, think the Eaton Centre, back in the days).
The main entrance is excellent for people watching. This piece I got by crouching against a wall, sketching furiously, and taking photos, while smokers gathered to ask what in hell I was doing and a dog scratched my legs, making me very nervous.
As they say, you've gotta suffer for your art.
I used homemade screens in parts, and so rather than wash them out after a first use, I made two pieces, no. 30-1 and no. 30-2, one on canvas and one on panel. You can see they're similar but still quite different.
