Gallery Mondays: Peace
While strolling past a school under construction in East Harlem, I saw this adorbs crochet peace sign made of yarn on the fence. Even though crochet reminds me so much of winter, this peace sign screams spring with its florals and vibrant colors. I’m not sure who created it―much less if it was just one…

In conjunction with Project 0, 50 celebrities created ocean-inspired art for the La Mer Wave Walk installation in New York City just in time for World Oceans Day on June 8th.

Gallery Mondays: Brigadier General William Mitchell & His Spad
Today we remember heroes like Brigadier General William “Billy” Mitchell. I saw this sculpture of him at the Chantilly, VA Steven Udvar Hazy Air and Space Museum in July last year. I think I was drawn to it because of the brigadier’s stance. He appears so poised and confident. Born in France to a wealthy Wisconsin…

Gallery Mondays: #25 by Wane Cod & Lucky Liz
I turned 23 this past weekend, and it truly occurred to me how old I am when I just looked up when the last Garfield movie was released. More than 10 YEARS AGO. What even?! Anyway, I see this truck by Wane Cod and Lucky Liz every time I run an errand for my boss…

Gallery Mondays: Ribbonesia @ #ShindoUSA
I walked passed Shindo USA in the Garment District of NYC today, and I came across this amazing fox by Ribbonesia made out of ribbon. I can’t imagine how much patience it takes to make something like this, but it’s gorgeous! I’m not sure if Shindo USA added the green tie to this fox, but…

Gallery Mondays: Patch Whisky’s Smart Monster #EducationIsNotACrime
I stumbled upon South Carolina artist Patch Whisky’s mural for the Not a Crime campaign in East Harlem on the wall of Fabco Shoes a few weeks ago when I got off the M103 bus. I cannot handle how adorbs his colorful monsters are! The one featured in this mural is reading a book and…

Gallery Mondays: Art Rising at The Majestic Pop Up
Last week I went to a fun pop up at The DL called The Majestic where they had dancers in body paint, face painting, and a small art exhibit. Above is one of the pieces I found intriguing. There’s a lot going on in this work of art by The Art Rising. The centerpiece…

Gallery Mondays: Wham! Holy Sunset Batman by Alix Ankele
A few days ago, I dropped in to see Alix Akele’s artwork currently hanging in the lobby of Kaufman Arcade in the Garment District of NYC. There’s something very calming about the way these colors are blended across this painting, which is odd because orange is one of those shades that’s known to raise blood…

Gallery Mondays: Biscuits & Bath Doggy Gym
Since I’m dog sitting for my roommate during her spring break this week, I thought it would be fitting to feature a piece of artwork I saw at Biscuits & Bath on the Upper East Side of Manhattan last month when it was still dead winter. Sully took obedience classes there, and I’m kind of wondering…
