I only saw one person doing Touhou art, but he was sharing the table with someone else. I don't think it was the same person. o_o
And I got to the Touhou merchandise booth too late it seems ;_; there wasn't much there. Got complimented for my t-shirt though >_<

This was the guy with the table: http://kouotsu.deviantart.com/
I didn't see the guy from the CNN article though, and I was there for a whole 12 hours on saturday, just wandering around. I would have seen it.
These were the two touhou-related prints he had:

I bought a large one of Rin, it looks awesome. Supposedly he's planning on selling t-shirts eventually. I noticed he had two Yukkuri plushes on the top of one of his displays. He wasn't doing commissions, for whatever reason.
I also saw a few touhou shirts, as well as someone cosplaying as Erin. Someone also had a Suwako hat.
Edit: Wait, there was a Touhou merchandise booth?! O_O
DarkslimeZ:
Haha, that Suwako was exactly the one I got. He was the guy in the picture?
There was a booth that had a lot of doujin stuff, including a box with some Touhou stuff in it. Mostly doujinshi everywhere though. The other side of the booth screaming yaoi probably set you off.

Wait a sec, that wasn't /just/ a Yaoi booth? What kind of stuff did it have, just doujinshi manga in japanese?
I just remembered I think I may have seen someone cosplay as Tewi, but it could have been some other character that looked oddly similar. I remember that was the case when I saw some figurines that looked like Cirno, but were actually some Evangelion char.
BTW: some pictures are starting to show up on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=New+york+anime+festival&s=rec&z=e
That bumblebee cosplay was /awesome/

I know him. I'm trading a doll with him for that hat~
