The bridge over the Gowanus Canal at Carroll Street.

Smoking Boy, woodcut, 1980 A self portrait I did while a student at Oberlin College.

An etching of the Union Street Drawbridge, viewed past a cluster of sunflowers which grew there last year when I made this print.  The chimney of The Green Building is just visible by the left arm of the drop gate.  

I produced the acquatint effect by pressing sandpaper into the ground and stopping out areas I didn’t want bitten.

Another little character sketch. The last drawing I posted is visible beneath this one in the pad. #sumi #sumibrush #drawing #painting #parkslope #portraits #characters #gowanus #graphicart #artistcraftsmansupplyps

Plate II. A typical Sun-spot (after Langley.)

Lithograph printed in london in 1891

A little character sketch. This is drawn on a sumi-e pad with translucent paper, so that the next drawing in the sequence is faintly visible. sumi #sumibrush #drawing #painting #characters #portraits #illustration #gowanus #brooklyn #parkslope #artistcraftsmansupplyps
