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

The Carroll Street Bridge, seen from the west bank of the Gowanus Canal.
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.
