Rachelle,
My name is Andy Fletcher. I am a water color Artist in Davis, CA. Your
“Public Market Center” sign at the Pikes Place Market inspired me to do a
10×12 watercolor for an upcoming show.
Thanks,
Andy

Cool. This is the photo I took. I thought it was a little odd because that sign has to have been photographed 1,000 times, but inspiration is inspiration and I’ll take it!
Here’s another time a photo I took inspired some derivative art.
And here’s Andy’s watercolor:

I had a good show and made some prints of the sign. I am going up to Seattle again for the 100th anniversary of the Public Market. Thanks for posting the work.
