Fantastic! I've worked in the building as an elevator mechanic, a real classic old gal of midtown.

Thank you! I always thought this building was really interesting to look at and thought the diamond shaped windows would be fun to draw. I'm planning on doing a series of Manhattan buildings that aren't the typical iconic buildings

I actually only used one pen for this piece. It's small. 5x7 inches, and it took 22 hours, which includes the time spent filming the progress for a timelapse.

This is beautiful! Are you posting your time lapse anywhere? Would love to see it progress to a finished drawing.

Practice! Try to draw something everyday. Even if its only 15 minutes. Don't worry too much about how it'll look. Over time, you'll get better. Just have fun with it 😊
