Artist Jason Polan wants to draw every person in New York—literally every person in New York—so he started a project to document his efforts. Two and half years in, Polan is still going strong, clocking in sketches of anywhere from a couple people to hundreds a day on his blog.

Get to know Polan as he visits the WNYC offices and tries his hand on our very own Jad Abumrad, Leonard Lopate, and Brian Lehrer—as well as Soundcheck guest Fred Schneider of The B-52s.
