I applied all the colors in the pictures with handmade stamps
Inspired by the prompt at Year in the Life of an Art Journal. I did NOT draw that graphic, came out of a magazine :)
Alamo, also known as the Astor Place Cube or simply The Cube, is an outdoor sculpture by Bernard (Tony) Rosenthal, located on Astor Place, in the East Village, Manhattan, New York City. The cube is made of Cor-Ten steel and weighs about 1,800 pounds. The faces of the cube are not flat but have various indentations, protrusions, and ledges. The sculpture's name, Alamo, is designated on a small plaque on one corner of the base and was selected by the artist's wife because its scale and mass reminded her of the Alamo Mission. Installed in 1967 as part of the "Sculpture and the Environment" organized by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, the Cube was one of 25 temporary art installations that were intended to remain for a six-month period, however local residents successfully petitioned the city to keep the Alamo. Although not within its design, the Cube can be spun on its vertical axis. As the heavy Cube takes more than one person to rotate, it has become a way for friends and strangers to bond.
Graffiti artist is doing a great paint job on one of the walls at the NDSM shipyard area in Amsterdam.
Many people believe that graffiti attracts crime. I believe that really good graffiti eases the souls of all who live in the community. It's creative, decorative, up-lifting, and inspirational (for me, at least!)
