Toy project: design a plush. The inspiration for Rocky was my uncle who, when we were growing up, never really bought us toys in the "toy-ish" sense but got us useful things like backpacks and travel/exploration equipment--so more "Discovery Channel" than "Cartoon Network."

Just a normal (?) NYC Saturday...AKA "Look Ma, I'm drawing!"
From Saturday, March 7th. Depicted on this sketchbook page:
-On Bedford Ave., two guys snapped my picture for a fashion blog they're starting up -Evans, the trumpet player, who I drew at the L stop for maybe 6+ trains -Random girl trying to recruit for her health clinic/business something something -Apple cider donut from the Market @ Union Square (with cinnamon sugar!) -People gathered around a Union Square planter, watching 3 squirrels doin the deed (yes, all 3 of them) -Custom-made cocktails at Flatiron Lounge -The Bird and the Bee performance @ Carnegie Hall -Oh, and random floating heads and people I felt like drawing/painting over
P.S. Below are pics from Hector. He was visiting from Spain and snapped the pics of Evans and I without me knowing it. Thanks Hector, glad to meet you!
