"SEELEY'S" - 8" x 10" - Pastel on Wallis Paper
















Color Study:
The building is a landmark of sorts at the corner of
San Fernando Road and Glendale Avenue in Glendale,

quite some time now... it intrigued me as the empty
edifice that it is. Thought I'd better make my record
of it before it's possibly torn down.
