“Chelsea Bookstore" (Barnes & Noble)color pencil w/pigma pen & brush pen, 4.5 x 7 in. (1998) by Michael Koch Life drawing of the Barnes & Noble in Chelsea from its upstairs Starbucks cafe. No longer in business like a lot of New York bookstores. Though I don't miss it much, it was big but just Ok. More importantly Trader Joe’s moved in to its cushy place. My go-to Trader Joes in the city!! Grocery wise, if you’re not upscale living, groceries are pretty bad and expensive in NYC. I still thank the stars we have this Trader’s Joes in its place..From my Black Canson 1998 Sketchbook. #newyork #newyorkcity #nyc #bookstore #artoftheday #brushpen #colorpencil #sketchbooks #contemporaryart #starbuckscafe #lifedrawing #cafe #coffeeshop #barnesandnoble #chelseanyc #chelseabookstore #bn #traderjoes #lostnewyork #lifesketches #contemporarydrawing #artbooks #nycsketchbook #nyinteriors #contemporaryinteriors #citylife #koch
