Artistic Canvas

Being in NyC you can see a lot of artists at work.  Be it professional or people who just want to be recognized.  The art can be something extremely formal or it can be something as simple as grafitti. 

Regardless of what the art is, NyC seems to be a canvas for them.  In the buildings, ON the buildings and all over the streets.  Even the subway cars and stations have been places where art is seen.  There is no limit to where the art will be placed, it's all up to the artist and wherever they feel they will have the best audience. 

Stickers also litter the city and every little corner you can find.  They are usually on the crosswalk signs but this is something that I had only thought about but never actually seen.

This was in the village to greet tourists and natives alike.  Gotta love how they broke off the rest of the fingers to create this!  I had to do a double take and it seemed that people were caught off guard as they huddled around it taking pictures and laughing at the creativity.
