Harlem, Spirituality and Academy

Greetings! For the March issue I recalled a piece I made back in October about Harlem. The drawing sows the St James Presbyterian Church, the 145th Street subway stop and The City College of New York in a compacted version of this neighborhood.

I chose this piece for this month because of the predominance of the church in the front, which is just one of the many different and peculiar houses of worship on this city. The difference in architecture and art is remarkable among these holy buildings and having a drawing that not only represents the holy but also the academic is perfect for the Holidays of March, including the Holy week, Easter and also the Midterm season for so many students of CCNY, who also has one of the most remarkable architectures of the City and is undoubtedly the "Hogwarts of Harlem" due to being a castle in the top of a hill ,easily visible from many parts of the city..

Midtown Manhattan

With this piece I wanted to illustrate the "Concrete Jungle" feel of midtown Manhattan when huge towers are next to more regular-size brick buildings and glass-wall offices.
