The oldest one and other Londoners

A few sketches of Londoners done recently to mark tomorrow's anniversary of my 10 years in town. The first one is the oldest man I've ever seen in my whole life, he was at the bank a couple of weeks ago, skin like a roast chicken and a spring in his heel, makes you hope.

I balance that with a standard young one from the same queue at the bank.
A couple of readers and texters at the train station.
Two more common transport faces, the vigilant and the energy-wise.

Hi Elliot,

I'm well thanks, just a bit busy between deadlines and a steep learning curve whose first fruits I will post here soon.

Great pictures, Max. I do so enjoy your work. Do you do commissions?

Hi Henry, thanks for your kind comment (I owe you a drink now).
As a freelance artist in a way I make my living out of commissions, always open to a new challenge.
