If I go a day without drawing I tend to go a little crazy. Turning my ideas into lines and then back again (cycle repeats) pretty sums up what I do.

I started drawing imagined apartments back in 2001 when I was dating a girl who lived in a long 6th floor walk-up apartment in Brooklyn (I lived on the other side of Brooklyn in a similar arrangement). For her birthday I made a pen & ink drawing of her domain from above, from memory. From then on I started to imagine tons of progressively crazier buildings with missing roofs. At the same time I was working on drawing 3-D phrases – so I decided to try combining the two concepts into large word-dwelling apartments. Several years later, after having two kids (with that woman, who I’m now married to) – I thought about making an alphabet in a somewhat refined and simplified, kid-friendly (but still a bit weird) series that you see for sale here.
