My drawing is of Hamel's Surf and Skate Rental. There is a Tattoo Parlor right next to it. I am lucky I got another EDM Challenge done. Number 36 is draw out in public.

Hamels Surf and Skate Rentals, Mission Beach, CA
I went to the Belmont Park in Mission Beach to sketch and paint today. It is the home of the first and only roller coaster ride I have ever been on. It was double scary in the 70s because the wooden frame looked a little old and rickety at the time. It has since been restored and I was impressed with the look of the area. It has some neat restaurants and shops in the main entertainment area surrounded by some of the older buildings.

They had a wooden rollercoaster in Long Beach when I was growing up..most of it was on pilings out over the water.....it made the most incredible sound and shook and rattled the whole way...thanks for the memories!!.....deni...;)
