Most of the things in this drawing come from things found on Google Streetview. It is all drawn in different kinds of cobalt blue. I wanted to get a Delft-blue style look going, and I sent away for as many different drawing materials in cobalt blue as I could, but they all came back in these different shades of blue. I have no idea what the real cobalt blue should look like. But there we go.
