Getaway not far from the city. Nice beach, surreal pool. Next to Fire Island (which is also super nice).

This park sits halfway between my apartment and my studio. I spend a a lot of time hear sketching and making phone calls. The trees are beautiful during spring and fall.

The design and photography floor at Barnes & Noble bookstore in Union Square.

My favorite neighborhood fancy chinese spot. Quality soup dumplings (it's obligatory to get an order). Mock eel (mushrooms), ants climbing a tree (noodles), salt & pepper fry (fresh daily), and mu shu duck are some of the go-tos. It's spicy and filling—worth a night of feasting. 

Brooklyn tattoo shop specializing in American traditional style work. Everyone is super nice and cool.
