This is an older sketch of a rather well known landmark- Cloud Gate in Millennium Park. We locals call it the Bean. I figured I'd start out with something familiar but I'm looking forward to posting the many faces of Chicago "one drawing at a time!"
Thanks Kate! I'm happy to be part of Urban Sketchers Midwest.
Barbara, welcome! So glad you could join us...Chicago's a fascinating city and I'm looking forward to seeing your sketches.
ReplyDeleteYou sure captured that chrome! I've been there once a few years ago so I know what it looks like. You captured it well.
ReplyDeleteOne of the most intruiging public sculptures anywhere! Great sketch.
ReplyDeleteI’ve not seen this sculpture on-site, only photos and drawings. Your sketch truly captures the expansive quality of this extraordinary piece of public art. I love how the horizon line is bent along the reflective “bean”. It shows a world within a world. I’m looking forward to sharing this blog with you, Barbara. And seeing your continued view of Chicago through your drawings.
