Gallery Mondays: “A Night Out” by Billy
Maybe if I post about fall-related things all week the weather will cool down in time for the first day of autumn on Friday. A few months ago, I came across this really fun apple sculpture while walking through the Meatpacking District in NYC. Called “A Night Out” this ginormous acrylic apple by artist Billy…

Gallery Mondays: Big Bird with Broken Heart
It’s been 16 years since the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001. I almost remember it like it was only a few years ago. I was seven years old sitting in my second grade classroom in Queens, NY when it happened. I couldn’t really understand what was going on but everyone was sent home…

Gallery Mondays: #BoxTruckGuardians by SINNED
During my lunch break sometime last week, I saw this truck in the turning lane on 39th Street and 8th Avenue in Midtown, NYC. I usually hate trying to take photos of things in moving traffic since they almost always come out blurry, but the light for the turning lane was red so I took…

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…

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: 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…
