You must. Good use of color in the sign.

Fabulous! The sign alone makes me smile. Wonderful street scene, Bongo.

Ayin,Wayne,Terri- Thank you!

I tried to use the same colors that Dick's uses. The color scheme reminds me of those used in comic books back in the day

I had tried to do a plein air of a Dick's including the big fifties-style rotating sign they have in front but I only had a little over an hour before daylight ran out - and the scene would have required at least 3 hours. It's been raining ever since so no chance to go back, so I did this instead.
