Walkin' Around Checkin' Stuff Out. #58

Nov 24, 2024

Old place, new drawing. Sadly, Nye’s is gone. Replaced with a souless apartment building. Bums me out everytime I drive by. I drew Nye’s years ago and felt the need to redraw it as my style has changed and evolved. This is the first drawing I’ve ever redone...but Nye’s is (was) worth it.

Convertible Cruise.

It may be late November, but that’s not stopping this guy from getting out for a last minute cruise before the snow flies.

Minnesotan’s know how to juice as much as they can out of decent weather. I don’t think 40 degrees is considered convertible weather in any other part of the country, but it is here.

St. Paul Brewing.

There’s a brewery in the old Hamm’s Brewery in St. Paul that’s pretty cool. They kind of fixed up one of the old brewery buildings at least enough that it’s habitable, even if it’s just barely, which is pretty cool and a nice contrast to most breweries that tend to be in new slick sterile warehouses that lack any kind of soul. They serve pizza so we had to check that out. Pretty good pizza and they allow dogs so we’ll be back.

Questionable Choices.

As seen at Target. Bold choices for sure. Shorts (it’s 40 degrees out), Crocs...hardly ever overshadowed except in this case with those polka dot socks.

Cool House.

I got a request for a commission and I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the house and all of the greenery and garden work. I love it when people are proud enough of their home to have a custom drawing created.

Late Fall Fishing.

This dude was geared-up like a pro. With that production I hope he actually caught something worthwhile.
