Behind "Jimmy's Super Lunch"

The guy you see polishing the car asked me nicely if I had a problem, I was staring at the car you see, that's what you do when you draw something, you look at it, he didn't like that. He relaxed a bit after he saw the sketch, he didn't want to make me eat my sketchbook anymore. We are best buddies now. The end.

Crazy LA, I'm glad you didn't get beat up over your sketch! You made the garage look really cool, so I'm sure he appreciated that...
Also, I really love those night sketches! Beautiful!

Hey Stef!

I love seeing all your sketches of the area where we work! I've been working around this area off and on for the last six years and all these spots are so engrained in my head.

I've had many a meal at Jimmy's Super Lunch. That place is very under rated. That mechanic's shop is has intrigued me for so long so it's to find out from you what they're all about.

Great work as always my friend.
