Chumley's


Chumley's used to be behind this door until it collapsed, now the door is all that's left. This was another great New York bar that is now gone, I was lucky enough to spend a great deal of time in there and did a bunch of sketches and took a load of photographs so I'm going to try to recreate it in a series of upcoming drawings. Gone but by no means forgotten.

Old doors have a lot of character. Your drawings will become part of history.
