This is Dave and I found him at work at our favorite funky coffee shop in Venice. I saw him drawing one day, and stopped to comment on his drawings. The next day I talked to him again, and asked if I could do a portrait of him. He draws in pencil, and then finishes the drawings in charcoal, which makes them deeply, richly black. Apparently he takes the drawings and prints tee-shirts from them. This coffee shop will be moving eventually to a brand new building under construction, and will loose all it's charm - it has been here forever. So this is not only a portrait of Dave, but a portrait of the coffee shop as well.
