Here are a few details hard to see above. I couldn't scan the drawing, only took photos, so the quality is not so hot.
I live near downtown. You'll notice the Walt Disney Concert Hall and the China Town gates, a couple of my favorite structures, and rather iconic.
Can you find the food truck? (click image)
Our house is on the far left. Greta swings.
To the far left, a small grove of orange trees that are rumored to still exist here in the city. Back in the day there were many orchards, and just about every house had its own citrus tree.
ASpanish style house, the Santa Monica pier, and Venice beach where Zach skated as a kid.
It also seems kind of cliche, but there really are palm trees everywhere.

I'm in Rachel! Didn't think that I would be, but somehow I am. I love this style of drawing that you do so well. Do you remember 'doodle art'? Have you ever thought about printing colouring in posters for kids .....? Thanks for swinging by love. X
Dear Rachel,
'City' is ready!
... and the idea of Jasmin printing posters for colouring by kids is great.
Best,
Ariane from Hamburg
Dear Rachel, beautiful drawings. I love your fine lines and detailed work. It brings the great energy of the city...:-)
hi Rachel,
i´m in too- as jasmin, i could say, somehow i am :)
i haven´t drawn much lately, so i hope that my photos will do. is it ok?
yours is a lively city, great!
where have i been, it has been too long!
i like these illustrations of your city. makes any place look friendlier. says the countryside girl who takes any possibility to escape the city when she can.
what do you enjoy the most in your city?
All your drawings are totally cute and playful, I like that a lot.
Thank you everyone for all of the nice comments. It's always nice to hear your thoughts and gentle nudges in expanding my drawing horizons.
Sara: What I most enjoy in this city? Hmmmm...
I'd say the melting pot of cultures and also the arts. So many great museums. And not that I do it that much but there is also great shopping.
So adorable! Love the details!
actually...
any idea who's challenging?
