I’ve been waiting to photograph this spot for over a year. I got it done today. Happy New Year.
Washington's Street Art
I did a small photo walk today with Joe and Brad in downtown Washington Pennsylvania. I also did a photo walk in this area a few weeks ago with Blair and Lisa. Here is just a small sample of the street art that the City has sponsored to help improve the downtown.
Hopscotch
I’d be willing to place a small bet this is the longest hopscotch course in the world. I took this photo around mid-night this time last year in Reykjavik Iceland. This was one of those nights I’d get MJ back to our hotel room and go back out taking photographs by myself.
Detroit's Eastern Market
I know that others like great graffiti art like I do, but we’re probably in the minority across the population. Of course, everyone hates bad graffiti, basic “tags” or just people tagging any random building, wall, etc... But great graffiti is as good as fine art, just on a larger scale in a public location. So, if you like that type of thing, Detroit’s Eastern Market and Miami’s Wynwood Walls are amazing spots for this. This photo is from the Eastern Market area of Detroit. They host an international graffiti festival every year where they feature some of the world’s best. This specific painting would probably fall into the Pop Culture art category, similar to Peter Max and others who work in this art genre. Sorry I don’t know the name of the artist who completed this painting.
