These are 2 Actresses from Andy Warhol movies. I went to a really big Andy Warhol retrospective at the Stelijk museum CS. It had 80 or so movies and videos projected onto big white walls. A lot of the films were just 15 or 20 minutes of a single persons face talking or staring . Like a video potrait. I had my sketchbook with me and drew some of the faces.... these were the only ones i liked

american tourists checking into the bulldog hostel

Jert in Amsterdam

Last fall i bookended my trip to the Kruger workshop with stays in Amsterdam.
I did a lot of drawing at the hostel I stayed at of strangers and tourists. I will post this series of drawings every other day over the next few weeks.




This banner is in the middle of a family friendly shopping complex much like an american mall. I love the european popular attitude toward nudity.



krokett anyone?


this is a drawing out of my sketchbook of two coked up, drunk britts bullying their hippy coworker at the bulldog hostel in the Red Light district. The bald one caught me drawing it and made a big loud scene. Luckily everyone in the group liked it and they insisted on having it. I drank all night with them and they insisted on buying all my drinks. The hippy sounded just like "neil" from the "young ones"....He told me that he arranges his records by color...."sometimes a record just sounds blue...or red...y'know".
maybe he deserved to be bullied a little bit.
