Three Groins in the Fountain

This week's urban sketchers' theme is iconic monuments, and I thought that Portlandia should fit the bill.  But I'd forgotten that the Portland Building was being redone, and the statue was under wraps to protect it.

Grump!  What else would be an iconic monument for Portland?  Big Pink?  Orange bikes?  I stopped to buy a burrito for lunch, and the vendor suggested doing the statue across the street from her.  (The one she has to look at everyday.)  So, after I'd finished my lunch I walked across the street to do Three Groins in a Fountain.

It's really called Quest.  And, as I found out when I walked around it, it's actually composed of five figures.  There's another woman and a boy hiding at the back.
