a 2012 drawing of my aunt’s magical studio apartment and a quicker isometric sketch done recently. she lived a remarkable life in this apartment in new york for over 50 years, where she hosted a satsang group and volunteered extensively during the early days of the HIV/AIDS crisis. its one of my favorite spaces.
