New York City!

I am back in the city! I am doing a painting residency at the School of Visual Arts. We had orientation today and I should move into my studio tomorrow (hopefully). I'll have some studio pictures later in the week.

I took a long walk to one of my favorite places in NYC, Gramercy Park.

Do you see the lone man reading peacefully? Where are all of the other people you might ask? It is a private park with locked gates (ask me how I know). With the bustle and crowds of the city, I can understand the allure of a private park. It might be worth staying at the Gramercy Park Hotel just to visit the park- they have keys.
