Faces of Vancouver


We made these to show some people we don't see very often, the people we see often.


Street Punk

This girl is a street punk with some brown and blue hair and three dreads. She has tons of gnarly tattoos and piercings and owns a brown dog. She panhandles by attaching a string to a stick and a cup to the bottom of the string like a fishing pole. Sometimes she sits on the sidewalk and holds a sign that says "I bet you a dollar you'll read this". I always read it and then feel tricked.

Luigi

This guy is one of three hundred thousand Italians who lives in the area. At odd hours in the night and early morning, he shuffles to one of the Italian cafes on the drive. He goes there to spit and speak loudly in Italian to other old Italian men, who are also spitting, smoking and speaking over each other. But mostly to watch soccer.

Weekend rider

One of the many rich lawyers who likes to think he is a motorcycle rider. Blasting around on his brand new Harley complete with full leathers, skull cap, and a cross bones bandanna. He only rides his bike when it is sunny out and the streets are full of young ladies to impress.

Vinny

He works at JJ Bean (a hipster coffee shop on commercial dr.). For some reason girls think his thick rimed glasses, tight button-up shirt and disgusting mustache attractive.
