Greene and Spring
These are drawn on location using an iPhone application called Brushes. No photo references, no tablets, no brushes to wash: just my finger on the tiny touch screen. Don’t even need a proper light: the drawing itself glows in a dark corner. At $4.99, Brushes is a very democratic tool (provided you have an iPhone, sure) and I suspect it’ll be to drawing what email was for letter writing. Something is lost, something is gained. Queens and Greene and Spring are two of 100 drawings featured in my book New York: Finger Paintings. They came together as a pair as I was sequencing images for the project. Here, they are a preview of the final project.
