Wynand van Niekerk as Downtown Sketcher captures city corners through vibrant sketches using fine liners, acrylic, and alcohol-based markers, bringing urban landscapes to life in Canada. His work inspires others to see beauty in their surroundings.

The sketch by Downtown Sketcher captures the East of Grafton restaurant, which was a significant part of Halifax's dining scene. The restaurant was owned by RCR Hospitality Group and was known for its fantastic food and ambiance. Unfortunately, it has closed down, making the sketch a valuable memento for those who have fond memories of dining or celebrating special occasions there.

The history of the East of Grafton restaurant is intertwined with the RCR Hospitality Group, which also owned other well-known establishments in Halifax, such as Shuck Seafood and Raw Bar, Waterfront Warehouse, The Arms Public House, Agricola Street Brasserie, Pazzo Risorante, CUT Steakhouse, and The Cable Wharf. The restaurant was a popular dining destination, known for its unique atmosphere and the kind of food it served.

The sketch of the East of Grafton restaurant would make a meaningful keepsake for those who have enjoyed meals or special events at the establishment.
