A diminutive row of city buildings
A drawing for today. This was one for a work project, "Nature Block Party"– see it in action at the (temporary) web site for this new offshoot of NYC Wildflower Week, and the new initiative, National Urban Biodiversity Week. Click on the image to see it larger.
Two studies of lamps
First Art Night of 2011! Complete disclosure after the jump. Click the image to see both studies. Pencil allows and invites more sensuous detail than marker, that's for sure.
