Stalking Another Curly Haired Woman by Accident (Tuesday, 5-5-09)

On the right on the 2, playing with her iPod while cradling a plastic bag like a newborn, while woman in middle was engorged in her paper and seemingly oblivious to the two ladies gabbin' it up big time next to her .

And her again on the right quickly on the 1. Woman on the left with big green backpack not stalked because of fun drawing hair, just happened to be in line of vision on the lonely Houston St. platform.

More SuperShiny Headphones (Tuesday, 5-5-09)

Super chromed out, a straphangers rims. Ran outta pages in this moleskine so had to draw over drawing Griff's friend had doodled in my sketchbook when we were on vacation in AZ - sorry Riles.

and over work notes which needed to be sacrificed.

Back to BK for the Movie Premiere (5-4-09)

I wrote 3 but it was actually the A. Got off at High Street and walked down the hill to catch the Ami Underground doc at the Galapagos Art Space, quite a sheeshy joint for a 12 minute short.

Cool Glasses Man (Monday, 5-4-09)

Matched the F train Sign.

The Sun Shines Bright on the F This Morning (Thursday, 4-30-09)

Waiting on top of the stairs for the F at 4th Avenue.

As one bald guy who knows, got wear the SPF 80 or a cap in the hot sun, this guy was mature enough that he shoulda known. Bad burn peeley on the top of the dome.

Following the Black Haired Woman from C to F (Wednesday, 4-29-09)

On the C, next to a curly haired girl with a butterfly pin.

Bench hanging at Jay Street Borough Hall platform. Lost her amongst the columns and didn't want to seem stalkerish.

Ended up on same F car but she exited quickly at Bergen so got just a quick pose. Luckily her bench mate sat reading very intently the rest of teh way to 4th Ave.

Halfway between Bitchin' and Fabulous.

Black floral print and alot of movement. Almost everyone in this drawing has parts of two people after the mass exodus and wave in at Atlantic.

Cozy (Monday, 4-27-09)

1 Train, mzlmustaghddjnk, reading.

2 Train girl and her pda, woman contemplating serious things or maybe she just had a heavy head.

Cozying up against cool metal rails on hot day in a purple tank top. Closest thing you'll get to refreshing smushed up on the 2 train rush hour.

Don't Fear the Swine Flu! (Monday, 4-27-09)

Flipped the book to catch the rapunzelish hair, it just went on and on.

2 Train to Chambers Street. Saw my co-worker on the platform so shot the shit instead of catching one last drawing on the 1.

Get Me the F#!@ Back to Brooklyn (Friday, 4-24-09)

Back from vacation and into sh!tness, get me home MTA.
Wirey guy with satin Yankee jacket and a touch of Nick Fury grey at the temples on the 1.

Reading, red coat, Chambers street.

3 train, point blank sketching, her hair looked like it had a real world underpainting.

Just time for a few lines and a spitty wash before jumping off at Bergen Street and enjoying some early evening sunshine for the walk down 5th ave.

Back From the Desert-Exec Creative Directors on My Ride (Wednesday, 4-22-09)

After a few days out where the only train I saw was my son's toy 4 train running the curve around the pool, I'm back on the 3. I forgot my little storyboard moleskine this morning, so am drawing in the big work one. Woman with shaggy blond highlights exited at Hoyt or Borough Hall, so still plenty of space on big spread for another composition.

More shaggy hair, this time attached to a guy with thin stache to goat sleeping in the corner of the train.

Green, white and brown headband - jacket with a little too much of an illustrative pattern all over.

Simon Nickson riding the 1, I saw him from Grand Army but decided to wait til close to Journey's end to catch him. Not sure if he was just involved in his PDA or was straight up ignoring me.

Two People Hanging by the Door on the 3 (Wednesday, 4-15-09)

I managed a comfortable spot on the inter car doors, this guy was riding the door to my left. He got off around Fulton and

was replaced by her with the heavy eyelashes and the giant earrings.

Matching Pink Jackets (Wednesday, 4-15-09)

Two little girls, maybe twins with coordinating jackets and different color blue hoods, one with her red umbrella. Someone was having fun with their outfitting. Not a fan of the identical sibling outfits although it can be very cute, like when 2 yr olds curse.

More from the 2.

On the 1, liked the pose i caught him in. He gave a warm glance of acknowledgment, but I stayed all biz as I like to do with my subjects. Sorry dude, nothing personal.
