Chelsea Squatter

I found this one with my friend Adrian while wondering aimlessly through the city. If I were squatting like that on a sidewalk corner in Chelsea I'd say dam too.

NYC Googley Eyes in my Neighborhood

A set of googley eyes looking at me from the side of  a trash bin at 87th between 1st and 2nd.

NYC Gloop and Gleep's Thuggish Older Brother

I really enjoyed finding this one. He is in Hell's Kitchen and has a really amazing presence. I am still unsure as to whether that is an ear or a growth.

NYC Face of the Soup Kitchen

I found this face on the side of a soup kitchen truck in Chelsea. I thought is sort of creepy and Tim Burtonesqe.

Update- This was the first picture I took on this trip and I have found out why. The more we walked around the city the more I saw him. The artist is very prolific. I lost count but estimate about 20 sightings.

The Watcher NYC

Taken in NYC, 3/1/09 on 18th Street at 5th Ave. I first noticed the happy face and when I went to photograph that I saw the text.
