Day 3. On the tour there were so many stand out street art pieces from giant NeckFace @nastyneckface1 to a massive Mike Giant @giantrebel8 mural. Here is @marcschil in front of a beautiful wall with @osgemeos @xabu @wk360 and a small @banksy rat right below the @osgemeos piece. That night someone has added the kite to the character. You could feel the conversation and level of interaction between the artists. Each one wanted to add and become part of something bigger. Many thanks to Marc and Sara for taking the time to share their love for street art. #woostercollective #stencil #stencils #streetart #spraypaint #streetartcollage #streetartcollection #graffiti #graffitiart #osgemeos #wkinteract #banksy #nycart #nycstreetart #art #urbancanvas #soho

Day 3. While in college I had the opportunity to take an international seminar to Paris and London. We could create our own research project and I chose to study street art. In the Spring of 2005 just before leaving to Paris the @marcschil and Sara from the Wooster Collective gave a wonderful free tour of NYC street art in SOHO. The walk was filled with a distinct rawness. Free art was scattered along the path for people to pick up and it was so exciting to learn about new and established artists.

Day 2. There are few books that have had an impact on my life. Stencil Graffiti by Tristan Manco @tristan_manco is one of those books. At the time there were little to no books on stencils or street art. This book captured the street art movement in such a beautiful way. It would be in this book where I would learn about Blek Le Rat and other incredible stencil artists that I continue to admire. Little did I know that years later this book would travel with me to Paris to meet Blek @blekleratoriginal I highly recommend this book to everyone. It is a wonderful source of inspiration. #stencil #stencils #streetart #stencilart #stencilgraffiti #streetartcollage #stencilrevolution #streetartcollector #streetartcollection #graffiti #graffitiart #urbanart #banksy #bleklerat #arys #acrylic #artcollection #drawing
