doodle day - inspiration and curiosities

This sketch was inspired wandering around Fresno CA this past spring.  It is a simple study, but I've been given a chance to recreate it for an upcoming project. It has me thinking. . .

. . .what is more dynamic to viewers; the glossy/graphic design style (lots more @ deviantart.com)? 
Or the sketchy style of a study? 
Or maybe something else, equally compelling?

(Of course this is highly subjective, but I always love to hear how people feel about art!)
I see purpose & value in both, but I wonder how other people feel about these styles?  And most importantly why it has a specific resonance.

That's my doodle for the day!

"...judging art is the least popular goal among American art critics, and simply describing art is most popular: it is an amazing reversal, as astonishing as if physicists had declared they would no longer try to understand the universe, but just appreciate it." -- Elkins, What Happened to Art Criticism?
