“Howdy” (All Photos By Gail)

Spotted on the corner of Second Ave. and First Street — just a block from the First Green Art Park — a true masterpiece of street corn-ography. This delightful paste-up, standing at a proud 4 feet tall, features a corn cob rocking a hat, shades and a jaunty little face.

Corny, as I call him, is the work of the one and only Corn Queen, the street artist known for elevating Pigeons and Corn to the level of high art.  Track him down now, snap a pic and pay homage to this cob-tivating creation before it gets eaten up by time (or a hungry pigeon).
