Red Puffy Jacket, Fudge Striped Coat with a Handlebar Mustache on Top

I've seen quite a few of these jackets on my travels lately, first one i captured in color wrapped around this curly haired note taker on this Chambers Street bound 1 Train.

Sporting a jacket that reminded me of a zomics chocolate babka. Hoodies lurking in the background, both printed and for real on 3 train to Atlantic.

Fear and Loathing on the 3 Train (Monday, 1-11-10)

Projecting the demons of the day on my fellow 3 train riders.

Reading the Paper Under the Watchful Eye of a Dunkin Donuts Sandwich (Friday, 1-8-10)

Expressively faced Silver haired man on the F train with the many orange shaded DD poster in the corner.

Contrasting Expressions on the 3 Train (Wednesday, 12-16-09)

I love people's "Train Face", some goofy, some hard. I doubt most people even realize what they are doing, it becomes a sort of involuntary reflex triggered by such close proximity to strangers, recycled air, and lack of sunlight I guess.

Woman With Lotsa Luggage on the A (11-16-09)

Lost Sketchbook Located (Monday, 10-26-09)

On the 3 train from Grand Army Plaza.

Woman with cane in front of the "Please Offer a Seat" poster.

On the 1.

More Heavy Ballpoint Action on the 3 and 1 (Thursday, 1-7-10)

From Grand Army to Chambers, not realy captured in the medium but young Orthodox woman in the middle had quite extraordinary hair in its volume.

More earmuffs on the 1, Chambers to Houston.

Cool Fro-Hawak, Some Grumpy Ladies and More on the F to the A Route (Wednesday, 1-6-10)

A from West 4th to Jay Street Borough Hall, as it was sitting on the platform when i walked down and saved me the descent down 2 more levels to the INDs. Digging the intricacies of the hairdo as well as the punkrockedness. Ladies on the right yammerring grumpily in Spanish, seemingly talking mad sh*t about someone.

Hopped on the F for the ride to 4th Ave, kinda butchered the woman on the left, she was actually prettyish but just had very hard features and was making a puss - she she got gas-faced?

Take Charge Good Sir (Wednesday, 12-16-09)

In front of one of those creepy Halls Ads i kinda like, done at my old agency . Guy rocking the way oversized flight jacket. Made me nostalgic for my green flight from my hardcore kid days. Don't know what inspires people to sport those multi-team baseball caps.

Some quickies done with drying out pens

and markers.

Some Scratchings With a Dying Pilot Pen on a Thursday Afternoon (12-3-09)

This big Moleskine paper was F*cking with my pens, getting into them and cloggin them up. Was a struggle to get enough ink out to render that hair.

These 2 guys shooting the sh*t as i squeeze the last few strokes out on my 3 train ride.

Covered Heads on the 3 Train Second Day back from Vaca (Tuesday, 1-5-09)

Dudes in the foreground (Rockies cap), gabbing a way, woman in the ski cap in big green jacket, looking a little tough. Large form behind her in all black, hard to make out distinctions between hat, hair and clothes (at least without my glasses). Did some guestimating. Listening to a little Bowie. Feeling alright despite it all.
