NY

NY by people.
Days over the train inside the subway going nowhere sometimes or just looking for some special expressions and faces from the people of this city. Each one was made by quick lines over a small sketchbook that I always carry with me in my pockets. It took me to do one of these drawings for about 2 minutes or less. The principal idea is to try to express by the line itself how the person is like the fat guy that is playing by his iPhone an amazing game with balls and cars or the hottest girl in the bus where everybody is looking her short skirt when the wind is coming through the passage that this vehicle has to move up her clothe and look more than our eyes wanted to see for having a special and ephemeral moment of imaginary pleasure. Everything is fast, in a couple of seconds, like the life in NY is. And also I add some words above the paper for describing where I were while I was doing the drawing with some details of the action of the person, the location and, sometimes, some of my thoughts. Anyway, it is the drawing itself the most important element, the rest are just details. A lot of details. And, that's it!
