Posting another drawing of a pine tree this week. I love drawing pine trees – elegant, resolute, evergreen – each year they remind us of the promise of spring. Coming soon to New York City! (can’t wait) posted by Veronica
View post →No matter what the political climate, one thing remains true: children love to sled down snowy hills in winter! This was the scene at Central Park in NYC this past Saturday afternoon. So many children and their parents enjoying the day, laughing and calling out to each other, making memories that will last a lifetime. […]
View post →These little thumbnails were the catalyst for a project that occupied most of my 2018 – an illustrated interactive game wall at the new NYU Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital in New York, working with the talented people at Potion Design; a trip through NYC. This thumbnail was the start of the Central Park game, see the […]

View post →Above are some screen shots of a drawing of Central Park that I created digitally. The difference with this drawing is that it is totally immersive – you can move into it, pan around it, let it move past you – this is a dream come true for draftsmen! I did this drawing using Mental […]

View post →As my older son closed off his first year at a new school in June we thought it would be an interesting summer if we set up a treasure hunt that would last throughout their vacation. The mission was to ride every carousel we could find in the tri-state area (including Nassau and Suffolk). To simply […]

View post →I recently went to draw at the Plaza Hotel in NYC. Very beautiful area with rich history, beautiful structures and some of the best people watching. I saw a ridiculously long line for the “Sex and the City” Tour Bus. Very funny. Maybe I’ll post the drawing of that another day. This time, I’ll share […]

View post →A quick drawing I made in my sketchbook, of our ever-changing NYC skyline. This was made from the Central Park Zoo. You can see the giant pencil-thin tower, “One 57” going up at the right. It’s even taller now than it was when I drew this, about two months ago. I hear you’ll be able […]
View post →There has been a lot of talk about doing away with handsome cabs around New York’s Central Park, and while I would be sad to see another NYC icon fade, I do feel for the horses… -Despina
