An iPad drawing

I worked this weekend at Market Square.
Didn't take photos of the people I drew.
I noticed one of street people sitting not to
far from where I am set up.

What first caught my eye was the red glasses
he had on and then the cap with the flag
and the heart on the bill of the cap.
He was layered with I am sure everything he owns.

When I got home I drew him with
what I remembered on the iPad.

This man was not bothering anybody.
Minding his own business.
The market has a lot of panhandlers who
try to make a living asking for money.
Security will walk them off the property,
when they get to demanding with tourists.
but they come back day after day.

You wonder what their life story is...
Were any of them a former caricature artist?
