A City in Marks: Chaz Newton-Smith’s Hand-Drawn New York

After being made redundant from a part-time youth work role, Stockport artist Chaz Newton-Smith turned fully to art, creating an intricate hand-drawn digital piece of New York City. Made using only his finger on Adobe Draw (now Adobe Fresco), the work took over 100 hours and captures the dense energy of the skyline, with the Empire State Building standing proudly in the distance. From afar, it appears photographic, but up close, the piece reveals thousands of expressive marks, layering the city in abstraction and movement. Designed as a vector, it can be printed at any size without losing its detail. Newton-Smith’s dedication drew the attention of Adobe’s developers, impressed by his craftsmanship. In an age of instant digital production, his patient, mark-by-mark technique offers a refreshing, humanised portrait of New York—one that resonates with the spirit of both classic New York artists and contemporary digital creators.
