Blank Ticket

"Not all towns that cropped up after The Big Fall survived..."

I started this a few days before my grandfather of 85 years passed away. I couldn't be in Connecticut for the funeral, and it left me feeling like there is something I owe him. Since sketching is one of the only things I can do, I dedicated this image to him. The foreground cross reads 'Thomas Pelloni.'

Originally I did not plan on having the ship in the background, but as I sat there staring at this huge blank space it came to me. I am very happy with the way it looks.
