Mercantile parking lot


These are my sketches one morning in the parking lot of the original Lawrence organic and health food store- the Community Mercantile.
From the pots in front of the store to an older couple making their Saturday pilgrimage for a few items, to the variety of "wheels" in the parking lot: a "T-bird", a Toyota, and a full size pickup toting some lumberyard purchases.
It was a sunny spring day, and everyone was out.  
The note at the top is what I was hearing on the radio that morning about Lawrence history and the "father" of basketball. Not sure I don't have the generations switched around. The school itself was named after a Rev. Cordely.   I should do some sketches of the old school...and the recent new additions...
