SALE! Waiting for the bus - city people figurative oil painting

"Wanted"
oil on gallery wrapped canvas 
 8"x 8"x 1.5" deep
Found these two gals, on the O.S.U.campus area, who had been
shopping and were waiting on a bus.
It is so great to have warm days again and go out and about.
Seeing people on the street is always one of my favorite things.
I don't really see them so much as individuals but more as the form,
shape,color and shadows that they create and how that adds to
or changes the lines and shadows of the existing structures.
