Merritt and Chandler are in the blue convertible on the left while Nanette crosses the street with Winsor and Everett.  Nanette is also featured on the left on a bike admiring the painter (which is Thom).  Some of the townsfolk duck into the Thomas Kinkade Gallery (on the left) to take a break from the rain.  A fictitious professor is walking a dog across the street.   The store on the left called “Nansk” after  Nanette is a real store named  “Dansk.”   From the day I finished Carmel, Sunset on Ocean Avenue, I dreamed of working on a second view of the famous scene.
