Gallery Mondays: URBANIMAL Graffiti on B.K. Express Truck
A few months ago I spotted this B.K. Express Truck sitting in the parked lane on 8th Avenue in Midtown with URBANIMAL graffiti all over it. The truck has a Michigan address on it, which is enough to pique my curiosity. The URBANIMAL graffiti was just an added bonus. The first thing I noticed were…

Gallery Mondays: #CreekLove
It’s finally back to feeling like spring again, and Earth Day is coming up, so I’ve decided to feature this artwork I found while visiting Austin, Texas in March. The piece was created by Lucas Aoki as part of SPRATX‘s #CreekLove Storm Drain Project to promote keeping the creeks and lakes of Austin free from pollution.…

Fan Art Fridays: Jim Chapman Draws Troye Sivan
Sometimes I forget that YouTuber Jim Chapman used to draw, so when I saw this video he posted earlier in the week of himself drawing fellow YouTuber Troye Sivan, I was super hyped! After asking fans what he should draw in a video, someone tweeted Jim a photo of Troye Sivan, to which he reckons…

Gallery Mondays: Monopoly
Tax Day is coming, so I thought I’d make it a bit less stressful with some street art I found at a gas station near the corner of Horatio St. and 8th Avenue in NYC. The art seems to be a joint collaboration by popular graffiti artists Alec Monopoly and King Saladeen. As you probably…

Fan Art Fridays: Gilmore Girls
Yesterday, PopSugar released an article detailing the full cast of the Gilmore Girls revival on Netflix and I couldn’t be more excited!

Gallery Mondays: Rainy Day
On my trip to Austin in March, I stayed at an Airbnb that had two very nice paintings on the wall. This scene of two women holding umbrellas as they walk toward the Eiffel Tower was one of them. Today was another rainy day in New York. Upstate even got some snow. So much for…

Gallery Mondays: Oda & King’s “Facelift”
Since Friday is April Fool’s Day, I decided to provide you all with some humor for this week’s Gallery Mondays. Back in the fall of 2015, I saw this piece by artist couple Oda & King in a group exhibit called Transfigure at Last Rite’s Gallery in NYC. I think it was the tape and this…

Fan Art Fridays: Superman
Happy Good Friday! Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is in theaters this wonderfully sunny day. As a result, Syfy is showing all of the Superman movies, which is totally cool with me. Apparently the critics aren’t really loving Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice . The negative reviews have been rolling in since Thursday afternoon. Anyhow,…

Gallery Mondays: ‘Holding Out’ by Seward Johnson
I hope this little old lady wasn’t waiting for a cab, because she’s got no free hands to flag one down! Maybe she was waiting for a cab. That’s probably why she looks so upset and annoyed… She also seems to have gotten a lot done. She got groceries, did a little shopping at Talbots.…
