HOT DAY ON THE SUBWAY PLATFORM!!




There might be air conditioning INSIDE the subway cars, but MAN on the outside of them is nothing but humidity and misery...... MTA doesn't seem to have enough money to cool the trains AND the stations, so they opted for the trains.... only problem is, by the time you board your train...you're soaking wet and NOW you feel COLD on board!! Here are a few people I managed to draw through the sweat and the heat... oh man do they look beat...
The first man was literally dragging himself across the subway platform in a vain effort to find a BREEZE to cool himself off.... the guy at the bottom was so fat he looked like he was going to start sweating chocolate milk any second. He was carrying an umbrella which has been a common practice amongst New Yorkers this summer as they go out in the heat. The umbrella acts like a permanent oasis of shade, and it works wonderfully well! I often find myself packing a mini umbrella in my bag along with my art supplies these dog days of summer....

And for you SMART ALEKS out there,,, They guy at the bottom picture AINT ME inspite of a slight resemblance!!!
