Wednesday Morning, 5 Train (5-28-08)

Word.

I saw this guy on the street a few minutes after exiting the train. I had an urge to show him the drawing, but he just passed on by.

Babies, Metal Dudes Reading and Another PSP Victim (Tuesday, 5-27-08)

Baby was by door at first and tehn her dad (on right) found seat and they moved over, she was a cutie who seemed in good spirits after spending the afternoon at work with her pops.

Couldn't see band name as his hair was covering, but I bet it was a bitchin' European tour.

She was glued to that PSP, made my life easier.

Murakami and Back (Thursday, 5-22-08)

Got out of work early and headed out to check the Murakami exhibit at BKLN museum..
Lotsa tired folks taking midday siestas....

My man was col' sprawled out...
There was a dude on my car who I think had Turrets as he was repeating everything that came over the PA. We had to switch trains at BK Bridge and he disappeared on the platform.

Switched to 3 at Nevins, this guy was eyeing the noisy teenagers at other end of car disapprovingly.

2 back from Eastern Parkway.

This guy was still sleeping when I got off at Clark St.

A Repeat Customer! (Wednesday, 5-21-08)

This guy was getting ill with his yellow hilighter on the paper he was holding.

This woman had very distinctive glasses and even though her hair was done much differently, I instantly recognized her and had to catch a quick sketch before jumping off at GC40Deuce. The first drawing of her was from a May 16th entry, the second drawing.

Homeward Bound (Tuesday, 5-20-08)

Platform got pretty jammed up by the time the 5 arrived, everyone was keeping there head down as if the weight of the crowd was bearing down on itself.

Someone had the courage to look up, although he just seemed to be staring off into space...

Fun hair but a very severe reading expression.

Another shot of fun-hair-severe-reading expression in the foreground. Woman behind with green coat seemed to offset her tension with a very rounded, relaxed presence.

Blue Tuesday (5-20-08)

I couldn't hear this guy through my blasting iPod, but he appeared to have a constant flow of curmudgeony comments about everyone who passed by.

Trying to stay composed and comfortable squashed between the trees.
