2012Jun 3tags: Food | ink | Ira | juice | KuretakeTangerine juice. Homey kitchen scene. It said “Tangerine juice” in Japanese. This cute juicer I bought few years ago on flea market at Coney Island, some vintage piece.
I used Pear ink and new sample of Noodler’s, color made with few Kuretake pens.

2012Jun 1tags: Blackwing 602 | sketch | subway | tiredTired. Sketching on NY Subway. Blackwing 602. The way his boots were turned inwards, his interlocked fingers, all his slouchy, a bit cartoony figure – all was the essence of tiredness and exhaustion. Brought to mind Van Gogh’s workers, I felt bad for him and wished him well and better life.

2012May 13tags: ink | Ira | musician | sax | songsMusician Alex. It was pretty surprising to hear my childhood songs highlighted by saxophone, while I was drawing trees and brunches for old people. My father use to collect songs, so I heard many from old times and they dear to my heart.
I outlined the figure of musician and the rest dissolved into the light. I used ink and gold watercolor for saxophone, it doesn’t scan well.
