When
I learned that the original statue was located in New
Orleans, I had a Proustian memory of enjoying beignets
at the Café du Monde in the French Quarter some ten years
ago and decided to relocate the statue to the café. I
colorized the statue of the man, removing the glasses
with a combination of the clone and smudge tools while
I was at it. The table top, wall and floor were created
in Elements. The font for 'Café du Monde' is Arnoeld.
The chair, table legs, newspaper & coffee cup are
modified Photo Objects.
