Drive-by Shootings

I was wondering how I can connect my job with my artistic activities, when I heard about David Bradford, who is a cab driver in New York, what seems to be quite similar to Liberty City. David was at the Rhode Island School of Design, me not, so I tried copy him, as a method to learn from him. David is a role model for me, I really admire his work. Under each pic you find a link to the original.

Being a cabdriver in Liberty is a great job, especially at rainy nights. Cruising around in an “Albany”, guided by the warm voice of the route guidance system, feeling the rhythm of a city that never sleeps, while thousands of colored lights reflect on the splashy road, windshield wipers slapping offbeat to Charlie Parkers “Night And Day” on the radio. Enjoying the breathtaking view while crossing East Borough Bridge, lost in thought on Dukes Boulevard, past is what you see in the driving mirror. Of course all customers are crazy, but who cares?
