Hyper urban sketching. When I draw on the street, I possess an extra chromosome that allows me to see extra details.

The model who holds a knife.
Speed
After the closing of my beloved life drawing studio, I’ve been going to other studios that have much shorter poses. As a result I’ve had to alter my drawing style. In order to draw fast, I’ve gone to speed sketching with a few different colored pencils style.

Deplorable
Who Are You
I did this drawing at The Met in nyc. They have a show of original rock and roll instruments. The guitars of Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, Ringo Starr’s drumkit, and Lady Gaga’s piano. It’s quite an impressive display. I managed to find a place to hide, which wasn’t easy, in order to draw Keith Moon’s drums. You are not allowed to draw with ink at The Met so I did this with colored pencils.
Home Stretch
I still have a few last drawings from the Spring Street Drawing Studio that closed. So there will be a couple of more to post.
End Of An Era
My beloved drawing studio has suddenly closed. New York’s famed Spring Street Studio was a beloved, iconic institution. There was a big article in the Wall Street Journal about it. Owner Minerva Dunham can no longer afford the space.due to rising rents. She is looking for a new studio to take over. Hopefully it will happen. Otherwise I’m out on the street.
Faces
I like to draw like I mean it.
St. Remy
A tiny little side street in St. Rémy, France. All the shop keepers know me now. The best thing about Provence was living in a house without air conditioning, eating the best figs on the planet, and interacting with some of the kindest, and surprisingly funniest people I’ve ever met. Thank you France.
