High-Rise Under Thunderstorm


Around 9:00pm Thursday evening, Chicago had severe dark-dark blue clouds hovering all over downtown.. It was awesome and very rare.

As I was dropping off a customer in the south loop area, I noticed about 4-6 layers of assorted color spectrum's bouncing off this particular high-rise near Roosevelt & Columbus.

I knew that If I didn't sketch & render this, I would never see it again! This rendering captures the spirit and feeling of that particular 25 minute brief moment!

By the time I was done with the sketch, the yellow streaks were all gone..

The yellow vertical streaks are accurate and I have no idea where they would come from. I see this building every day and it has NEVER had any yellow streaks what so ever !!!

Enjoy..................

Wrigley Bldg

10th color rendering

I dropped off a customer here the previous day and had to stop. This bldg is secluded in Chicago's industrial sector between Division St. and North Ave off of Hooker street.. I was impressed with the setting. Intend to return and sketch the front of building.

Prism Markers and .45 mm Micron pen used as medium...

Airport Ramp


Ramp departure road to Midway Airport. The sky looks cool. I love the way I bleeded a top secret color on top of the blue..

I was stunned at this experiment. It could've been catastrophic.. But its all about taking a risk..
