Profile

Sunday on the Bus

Conversation. Anticipation. People and street watching. Dreaming.

Sketch

Lord Snowdin

She's actually a lady and it is snowing in NYC so why not nap?

Hello charcoal my old friend...

I've come to talk with you again.

Sunny sunny side

Everyone's got them. Sunglasses.

Subway People

They all look so good. So many to draw.

Dusk in the Dining Room

Richard - this one's for you

Lem in her best winter coat.

Astor Haircutters

Giovanni cutting hair while I wait my turn. Saturday is a busy day at Astor.

The Trio

Riding downtown by bus and one catching some z's.

Lem

Lem (short for Harlem where she was found) lounges on the table,

on the floor, in her leopard sleep hutch, down the hall, in fact

she takes herself anywhere she wants to be at anytime.

Thoughtful

Winter Hath Raised its Snowy Cold Side

All manner of winter clothing. Furs, hats, scarfs et al.

Picasso, Warhol, and Rembrandt

Cube Pop and Bebop!

Reading

On the bus some read and some daydream. Most, if not all, are entranced in their own worlds.

Venus at Home

A Pencil sketch of Venus amused with her favorite cable tv psychic.

Starlite Lunch Time

Lunch, yet again, at Starlite. The journey hadn't led here or perhaps it had.

Riding

So, the genie asks"are you sure you want to take this trip?"

I knew I was in for something but I couldn't say no. What if I didn't find out?

How could I live with myself? I needed an adventure no matter where it lead.

So I got on the bus. It all started quite normally. Just a few other passengers.

But my excitement was expanding around me. I felt breezes and sensations

as the bus started to move. Lights ahead flashing, light in the bus and

lights inside me. Where were we going?

Sketching

Who's Your Neighbor?

Just a bunch of guys making no fuss on the bus.

Hugh Thomas Cumby

Well, at least I got the hat right. Sorry Tom.

Sunday Evening

It would be the NYTimes but The Artist magazine was chosen.

Hat

It was a really big hat. I mean what was under there? Who?

2nd Avenue Bus

I love the diversity of people in NYC. Always someone interesting to draw.

Photoshop

The start of a Photoshop painting of a Vermeer.
