Not sure if this grumpy character is a demon or a bulldog, but I like it. Classic notches in the eyes add to the personality.

West side, Manhattan.

I love the economy of saying, “let’s all use the same colors” to paint this wall. Recently painted over by the building owners.

West Side, Manhattan.

Found on a nice white delivery truck, this lettering piece looks quick but still well thought out. The outlined rectangles draw my eye, but I’m not sure I like them. And that tension is probably a good thing.

Midtown, Manhattan.

One more from the travels of our foreign correspondent, @hopemanbob. Based on all the tags and graffiti added to the face, I’d guess this painting is at a bus stop. None of this deters from the cartoon illustration style which is somehow recognizable. The eyes have wonderful shading.

Belgrade, Serbia.

While the title may say it all, there’s a ton of detail in this piece including the highlights, shadowing, the cracks and of course, the umlaut.

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.

Reminds me of the old Disney/Hanna Barbera cartoon dogs, happy and bumbling. Obviously a rushed tag due to the very high profile location. Great color choices too.
