   Next to the man were about 30 drawings. They were clipped 1 to the fence beneath the handrail. There were drawings of bridges and buildings. There were drawings of people's faces. All the drawings were black and white. John thought they were beautiful. He couldn't believe the price. Each drawing was only $10. They were all about 8 inches by 11 inches. "These are so beautiful," he told the man. The man was sitting on a folding chair. There was another folding chair next to him. "Thank you," he said. "I from Russia. English no good." John said, "But your art is very good." "Sit, sit," the man said. "You, you." The man pointed 2 at John with his pen. He pointed at the empty chair. "You want to draw me?" John asked. "Sit, sit," the man said. John said he didn't have time. Maybe he would stop on the way back.
