Please stand clear the closing doors.

Posted by: shauna on January 29, 2003 07:27 AMOh so good. Like Shauna said, it's all in the details. They're small yet intricate and I love stuff like that.

Posted by: Witold on January 29, 2003 10:52 AMThe subway driver's stubbly hair is tops! I love these drawings. They make me feel like Richard Scarrey's books used to when I was little. :)
Posted by: Anna on January 29, 2003 10:58 AMi like how your cab driver is holding a coffee cup. and the little face peeking out of the subway... really nice.
Posted by: alexandra on January 29, 2003 08:25 PMWow, Anna, the Richard Scarrey comment is a true compliment, thank you. : )
I also like the little kid watching the tracks. I do this myself sometimes. It is especially fun on the lines that go above ground.
Posted by: Witold on January 29, 2003 08:35 PMthey are truely lovely. If I were a publisher and if you wanted to publish these I'd publish them for you, but since I am just a um.
But Witold :) how come everything is free ? :D you must be incredibly lucky.
I love the lamp-post :) it's smiling like a lollypop.
Posted by: T on January 29, 2003 11:19 PMWow ... apart from being really beautiful, they have such a great sense of wonder and humor to them. Anna's right on with the Richard Scarrey comparison in the sense that you can just move around inside the drawings and find fantastic little surprises everywhere. It's impossible to look at these and not smile. :)
