Mail order
Take a couple ol' Sharpies, and dive strait into a sheet of white paper, and something like this may be the result. For better or for worse! I was at the new library picking up a book and had enough time to stand just inside the northeast corner windows and do this sketch of the trucks parked in line in the Post Office parking lot. A little pattern of some kind or other can be a key to interest in a drawing. Here the line of truck windows provides that pattern. The trick is to not be distracted by other detail and forget the main focus of the sketch.
I think they are calling those corner windows in the library "the lookout" or maybe "the overlook". When I went back by there the other day the chairs were all full of people. It is about 15-20 feet above the street. There is a nice view of the park area to the west. The PO is to the north.

They must have moved the adult section to the west side of the library, then.
