New New York



after an unexpected turn of events i found myself back in New York for 3 months for the first time in 4 years. It has been a new experience for me. When i left new york i was a struggling illustrator and now this is the first time living in NY as an established illustrator and meeting illustrator friends. It's my first time feeling more adult-like in NY. In the last 3 months I have discovered a "New" New York.



I never really lived in brooklyn before, let alone south williamsburg. There is a huge Jewish population here.



marcy ave and broadway.





visit to the New York Times building on 8th avenue







from that visit i got my first NY Times job!



chess in union square



one of the things i need in every new country i live in, a printer. these all in one printers are horrible but what can i do.



my first nationally circulated cover for Discover.



my digs on south 5th street for 3 months. that's josh's dog maxwell. always on the couch, all day, e'ry day.

illustration by woojung ahn. i met her in korea and john happened to be her teacher at SVA. small world.







williamsburg. thought this was Nate Williams work for a second.



sketchbook project in williamsburg. they get sketchbooks from all over the world and catalog them like a library and you can check them out and look at them. i don't know how this works financially but they say they cover all their costs by submission fees. there is an insane amount of cool work pouring in everyday from all over the world.





atlas cafe on havemeyer and grand street in williamsburg. there is always a ridiculous amount of macbook usage going on in here. at peak times you could see 20 people on macbooks seriously.
