5.17.21 Lunchtime drawing: I spent my few spare minutes sketching Luster Photo Lab in the East Village and didn’t even have time to drop off the rolls of film I brought along to get developed!

6.1.21 Lunchtime drawing: Odessa on Avenue A, one of the East Village’s last 24-hour restaurants, closed about a year ago due to Covid-related loss of business. Also, there’s something electric in having 3 minutes to make a sketch, because I have to be on 23rd street by noon. This is right next to Luster Photo and I never allow enough time to wait in line and pick up my film.

There is a lot of info to digest (pun). What does a bacon sandwich stuck on s pile of gunk have to do with coconut milk?, who chose these typefaces? I understand the museum-quality art flyer better. #avenuea #parsonstypesafari #typesafari #typography #typographicsnyc #nyctypography #anselmdastner #vernacularphotography #vernaculartypography https://www.instagram.com/p/CCDsvGBjC6nBEGsmvrvh15V399UPZgyIkrszk80/?igshid=1coz5ua02843i
