Corner 5th Avenue and East 40th Street

Monday evening after work, weather was cold and misty but the scaffolding at the corner of 5th Avenue and East 40th Street provided a shelter and turned this pre-marked page with a sketch of the scene.  Note that I had to turn my sketchbook the other way around to make sense of the pre-marked random lines and make the scene fit into it.  Talking about adaptation.

Finishing the sketch once I got home.

Random line pre-sketch

After making a 20 minute sketch, it looks like there is something developing here.
