The Empire State




I had to do a photo shoot with Craig Cutler. His studio is located on 32nd street. I stepped out of the subway and looked up. I was directly underneath the Empire State Building. It was a very cool angle. At night when I was finished working, I passed the same spot. The building was lit up multicolored. Someone on the job the next day said they did it in honor of the Grateful Dead. Some of the remaining members were playing the Beacon theater. The Empire State Building was tie dyed. I bought this new iphone app. It’s called type drawing. I sat under the Empire State Building and used it to draw. The app is not so easy but here are my attempts. You can type in a few words and as you draw a line with your finger it spells out what you wrote. It allows you to change typefaces and line thickness. This is the best I could do with it.
