This man wasn’t really sitting on a large red box. He was actually sitting on the steps of a house in the Maxwell Park section of Oakland. It’s a house at a corner where the 47 bus stops on it’s way through the neighborhood. People use the steps as informal bus stop seating. You can tell by this man’s short sleeves that I did this drawing a few days ago, before today’s icy cold rain storm.
