South to Downtown

Just a small painting for Tuesday... 9x5 from a photograph I took on the bike trail along the lake shore.

The Brown Sack

I arrived in the Windy City on September 21st, applied for a few jobs, got an interview on the 26th and started work on the 27th. I work at The Brown Sack in Logan Square, and my boss' birthday happens to be today. I painted a small (9"x7 3/4") watercolor of her shop, open now for just over five years, as a thank you / birthday card to Malaika just because I like her so much.

If any of you out there are looking for a small gift, these only take about 6-7 hours and prices are negotiable!
