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.
