View post →Sometimes, even in this city of 16 million, one person will stand out, or sit, and there is no one else. I often wonder if they feel as solitary as they seem for those few moments. As I finish I look up and realize that a few gazing eyes have been spying as I work, […]
View post →I don’t think I have posted this one yet. I was never really happy with the scale and design. A little harbor on the Hudson I pass often. Yet it always seems to turn up when I am looking through watercolors. Each time it grows on me a little more. For some reason I remember […]
View post →Another misplaced crowd drawing from the same time period as last weeks. This one of Grand Central from a few years back.—pre-Apple store and Shake Shack. Long before the “Gate of Hell” GCT was where i went to draw as many people as New York had to offer. Always a fun crowd.—Dominick

View post →Technically not one drawing (I could have gotten two posts out of this) but I knew when I drew these three that I would post them together. Two gentlemen got on the subway and set up their drums in the center of our car. It’s always the ones that play a different angle that you […]
View post →The feet were pretty good too, but the fact that it is noon and I am awake is the true test. Some sugary coffee, a lot of fruit and crossing my fingers that today will end much earlier than yesterday.—Dominick

View post →I couldn’t see this woman’s partner hidden behind another subway rider, but it was obvious they wanted to be as far from the man sitting next to them as possible. In fact they wanted to have the train to themselves it seemed.—Dominick
