Another shot from our roving reporter, @hopemanbob. I really like that this large mural portrays both sides, the savior and the destroyer, full of both peace and war. The monotone color palette also really helps to emphasize this dichotomy.

Belgrade, Serbia.

Another find from our foreign correspondent @hopemanbob. This one is a large wall mural from artist Filip Letinu for a local bike rental company.

Bucharest, Romania.

This piece may look small here, but it was actually over two feet across. I like the simplicity and it’s iconic, almost emoji immediacy. A character and an emotion, all contained in a few paint strokes.  What can you draw with three lines and two dots?

Midtown, Manhattan.

Wonderful detail in this street mural full of pathos and hope.  The wing breaking out of the frame is a great, subtle touch.

This is another guest post courtesy of @hopemanbob, so we’re officially promoting him to Foreign Correspondent!

Vienna, Austria.

So many great details in this piece. From the little heart lock on her lapel, the key in her hand, her Cubist inspired open eye, the heart tattoo on his arm to the tear on his cheek. Somehow the whole story is there to read.

This small, one inch circular glass cabochon was nearly invisible stuck to the side of a giant steel girder. Finding the small in large places.

Hudson Yards, Manhattan.

Cheers to the intrepid soul who stuck googly eyes to the window display of this high end watch store. The display is commemorating Omega’s part in the Apollo 11 moon landing 50 years ago and features two large gold astronaut statues. These eyes just appeared one quiet morning. Hard to accomplish given the CCTV surveillance “security” paranoia that surrounds us these days.

Nothing against Omega, but I love adding this whimsy to the face of all the opulent wealth on display. Given the rampant unattainable commercialism that threatens to drown the average citizen of this city, we need fight back with more humor.

Alas, the eyes were quickly removed.

Hudson Yards, Manhattan.
