Pages 12-13 from the November/December mini book. Enjoy.
The drawing on the right hand side is a bit of an accident. On the original page there is also the phone number of somebody I was meeting for a conversation about a possible project that day. (I obviously removed the phone number and the name and the name and address of the ad agency.)
I ended up taking the offer from a larger place, a different project for a different client. When I was in the subway that day though, I must have just had the drawing on the left, with which I was pretty happy, and then there was just this empty page onto which I had written the address. So I drew the door between cars, I started something somehow jotting down the reflection in the polished steel inside of the Number 3 train. It is a very short ride, just two stops to Times Square, the station where I had to leave the car. I never went back to that drawing. I should have probably not even started.
But the cables on the ceiling on the left hand side are wild. And there are two kids watching the tracks. Oh well. : )
nice work! i am having flashbacks of the N/R right now :) cheers!
: )
and the W and the Q?
Do you take crayons with you on the subway, or did you add the color later at home?
It would totally make my day to see a guy coloring with a pack of Crayolas during my commute. :)
Ahem, they are color pencils. I do not have them with me today, but I usually have a zip-lock bag with some basic colors with me. (And a sharpener and more little things.) I sometimes color at home... I sometimes color on the train. ; )
Hmm... crayolas might be the way to go, of course...
the thing is that these drawings are really tiny. It is all part of the small moleskine... so pencils feel like crayons.
today i walked to my deli just to buy a pack of crayolas, and would you believe it the girl in front of me says "yeah and let me get that box of crayons."
she got the last box!
