Alirka Colon
University Foods

This sketch is of Alirka Colon, one of the women who work at University Food Market, at 115th Street and Broadway. Alirka has a wonderful mixture of facial characteristics, reflecting the mixture of peoples who have inhabited the Dominican Republic since Columbus's first visit.

Because I go to that store daily to get my morning coffee, I have drawn several of the people (above) who work there.
