Drinking alone at the bar. Drawing

in artzone •  7 years ago 

I do not mean drinking alone at the bar is a bad thing.

After spending all day working on this piece: https://steemit.com/artzone/@achristopherart/transcendence-pen-and-ink-drawing

I went to my local watering hole for a night cap. I live on the northside of Chicago in a neighborhood called Edgewater. I frequent a bar called The Sovereign. It's your typical dive bar with your alcoholic friendly locals. I should also mention it has the best jukebox in the city.

Anyways, I asked for their pad of paper and a ballpoint pen. This drawing is what came of it. A few gin and tonics and a few generic beers later.. here I am writing to all of you.

Awesome

Very Strong work Chris! You have sick style, I love the raw but consistent pen-work. But that force though... Fucking ey! I'm torn! Is the figure in bliss, purgatory or both? Blessings brada!

I believe this figure is just happy to get his first glass of whiskey!

Me inspiras :)

You always add the right amount of back story to your work, I could take a lesson from you in my posts.

Did you see this guy while you were at The Sovereign? You did say it's a dive...

It is certainly a dive bar. But no creatures of the night really.
