Chicago "The Windy City"

20180722_145738.jpg

I have lived in Chicago the majority of my life, until recently. I miss my old city occasionally so, during one of those moments I decided I wanted to draw my favorite spot in the "Windy City." This is the Cloud Gate, or as I call it, the Bean. It is a huge iconic sculpture made out of mirror material, in the shape of a bean. Its located in the downtown area where many tourists come to visit. This big scultpure has been in countless photos. One of the amazing aspects of Cloud Gate is that it is a seemless series of polished plates of steel, which reflects the famous sparkling skyline of Chicago. If you ever visit Chicago, you MUST see the Bean.

Here is the actual thing, at night its most beautiful at night when the city sparkles
