So I'm working on the third installment of Everything Goes, and I'm sketching the final segment where a ferry is pulling into a harbor at the end of the book. The way I work, see, is that I first draw thumbnail sketches more or less from my head. I think about what I have in my imagination for this page or drawing, and get that down. Then I'll look at photos and stuff and get some details and ideas of what the thing I'm working on actually looks like. In this case, I imagined this little beach/harbor community with taffy and surf shops, a small boat harbor, some jetties and docks, and a road full of cars that runs between the shops and the harbor. So I drew that.
The towns I had in mind are towns I've visited in my life. Towns like Camden Maine, Cape May New Jersey, and Sausalito California. Imagine my surprise when as I'm looking at pictures on the internets of Sausalito and this picture comes up. I mean, that's kinda weird, right?
