With Halloween coming up this weekend, I just had to revisit a piece of art I found while perusing Last Rites Gallery in Midtown a few months ago. This piece is called “Wounded” is by California-based artist Jasmine Worth. Several things about this piece remind me of the day we all play dress up and…

Fan Art Fridays: James Bond
Yesterday I started seeing the posters for the new James Bond movie, Spectre, popping up everywhere in the city. I started to think I was going crazy when I saw that Day of the Dead skeleton in the background of the poster art, but by the third poster I came across I was convinced that this was…

Fan Art Fridays: League of Legends’ Caitlyn
Comic Con has arrived in New York City! I was a bit confused yesterday when I saw people dressed up in costume because Halloween is still a few weeks away but then I remembered Comic Con is this weekend. I’ve never actually been to a Comic Con event, but I always love seeing the costumes…

I’ve been missing California lately, so for today’s Gallery Mondays, I picked a piece of art I saw while visiting Hammer Museum in Los Angeles—French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s Touc, Seated on a Table.

Fan Art Fridays: Sutton Foster
Thursday was World Ballet Day, and I couldn’t help but reminisce on Sutton Foster’s role as Vegas show-girl turned ballet teacher Michelle Simms in the ABC Family television show Bunheads. She taught her mother-in-law Madame Fanny’s ballet school alums on the series, and even though it’s been over a year since the show got cancelled I still miss her character.…

Gallery Mondays: Hewitt’s ‘Urban Rattle’ on The High Line NYC
I haven’t been to The High Line since last year, and looking back at some of the photos I’ve taken while up there makes me want to go back this fall! I took this photo when I visited The High Line with some friends back in 2013. It’s an art installation by Charlie Hewitt called Urban…

Gallery Mondays: URBANIMAL Graffiti on K&M Camera’s Van
About two weeks ago, I saw this van parked on West 38th street in Midtown when I got out of work. First I saw the scary face on the back doors and then I saw the cute yellow bird on the left side of the van. The van belongs to K&M Camera on Broadway. Below the company name…

Fan Art Fridays: Happy 23rd Birthday, Nick Jonas!
If you knew me back in middle school, you’d know that I was one of those overly-obsessed “Nick chicks.” I was about 13 years old when I found out about the Jonas Brothers, and I loved Nick Jonas’ curly hair so much that I would dream of growing old with him and running my fingers…
