["First Responders" 8" x 6" Pencil On Paper]
East Village resident Steven Hirsch is well-known for his courthouse photography as well as documentary work.
During the COVID-19 PAUSE, Hirsch turned his attention to a new medium: drawing.
"I started doing them when the virus started. It seemed like a time to start doing something different considering the world flipped upside down in a week," he told me. "The virus seemed like the only thing that made sense to draw since my work is autobiographical. I try to draw one a day."
He shared a selection of his work... you can find more here.

very nice! captures the moment!
Hey Steve. This is amazing work. Didn't know you were multi talented. Must be all the whitefish ;-)
Wow who knew ? More please. The Pandemic will not be televised but this plague art will remain powerful for a long time. I am really moved and impressed by this work.
Like these very much. Frenetic, like the situation. Stressy.
Killer Hornets is my favorite one.
Great work!
