Philadelphia Newsstand Drawings

Recently scanned these from last month's show at B2. They are also all for sale on my website. Enjoy! This one's on Oregon Avenue in South Philly.

On the east side of City Hall, on Market St. Stocked to the gills.

Sort of made up from photos of a few different lunch carts. I'm semi obsessed with the new crop of "halal nyc gyro heathy rice combo" carts popping up here.

Broad & Oregon. Not actually called "Mike's" and maybe not really 24 hours but I've never seen it closed.

Graffiti'ed stand on 16th near JFK or Market. This was the one that made me want to draw a bunch of newsstands. 

Across from Reading Terminal, sells mostly old X-men comics. "No Tobacco Products".

East side of Broad & Tasker. The guy wears the same Pink Floyd shirt every day. Also lots of lotto "dream books".

Next to Oregon Diner and the Asian Market. (best asian market in South Philly by the way. Also has a pho place and banh mi.)

Here's a bunch or reference photos, including some I never got around to drawing…. 

New Work At B2 This Saturday!

Gorilla Biscuits / Start Today for "Covers Covered"

For a show of artists' versions of classic album covers, curated by Philly cartoonist / illustrator Box Brown at Record Lady, a great new (vinyl only!) record store in Fishtown. 

After shooting down some  ridiculous ideas (Franco-Japanese anime-basketball-core supergroup ROTNS?) I settled on drawing something I actually like.... I've put this album on many, many times to pump myself up to get to work and do something with my life.. and after all these years it still works. 

If you're like me and missed the opening because it was pouring.. the show is up at Record Lady all month... with lots of other great stuff from Box, Josh Bayer, Rodger Binyone (of Phila Poster Guild), Pat Aulisio and a bunch of other Philly and non-Philly artists & cartoonists. Good stuff.
