I've been thinking a lot about things bigger than myself lately and this just kind of happened to fit that. Also space is always cool and so are giant weird crystal things.

I started the drawing by sketching what I remembered and then added in aspects of the real place. (Thank you Google street view!)

The best part is my memory looks nothing like the reality. In fact all I really had right was that there was a building and a curve in the road.

I think I’ll try this exercise again it kinda blew my mind.

Here is the link to the real place:
