In Chelsea -- Sadly
I don't think I've ever come upon a scene like this while checking out galleries in Chelsea. Nor do I feel comfortable documenting it without asking permission. But I didn't know how to approach this man. Anyway, what a sad commentary on NYC -- and its inadequate treatment of those who most need help.

In Chelsea
While in Chelsea today, I came upon a bunch of stickers with images of photos of stickers -- all KA's and MTK's. Too cool!

On Tumblr
Just about all the teens I've been speaking to this past year tell me that they spend hours a day on tumblr. My City-as-School intern, Ariel Estrella, offered to set this up for me and keep it running! Thanks so much, Ariel!

A Natural High @ 5Pointz
I'm loving this new piece -- the colors, the lines, the flow, the way it all comes together including the iconic bee that had been on the wall for months! A natural high!

In Baltimore
In this incredibly graffiti-unfriendly city (where blocks and blocks of abandoned buildings are largely void of any art except for some sterile "approved" murals) there does exist one alley where graffiti lives. When we came upon it yesterday, we also came upon a fun photo shoot.

In Downtown Manhattan
I lent Ariel -- one of my City-as-School interns -- a camera last week, and she returned it with dozens of great shots. Among these is this sticker that she tells me she found two days after Obama's assassination hit the news!

'lots of new walls at 5 Pointz and lots of writers from around the globe at work. My intern, Yasmin Jones, has been taking some great shots -- including this one of me trying to capture the Wallnuts wall.
