Wizard and Dinosaur Mural

Dinosaur and Wizard Mural By Mc Monster

Portland-based street artist MC Monster travelled all the way to NYC to put up this epic fantasy mural depicting the mysterious yet peaceful confrontation between a Wizard in a Moon-shaped boat and what is either a Dinosaur, or the Loch Ness Monster. To say that this tranquil scene encourages imaginative extrapolation is an understatement. The mural went up in November of 2018 at the First Street Green Art Park (located at 33 East 1st Street, NYC), and those murals tend to change every three or four months, so don’t wait too long to go check it out!

Update: As of March 16, 2019 this mural has been painted over.

Graffiti Pick Up Truck

I saw this truck parked right across the street from the First Street Green Art Park when I was there a couple of weeks ago filming This Guy.

Graffiti Pick Up

It caught my eye, and I thought maybe it would incite a few blog hits and also make a worthwhile Instagram post. I like the Human Hand versus the Demon Hand. Nice touch.

Graffiti Pick Up

I’ve no idea if this design is the work of an amateur, or if it was created by an artist whose name is already associated with painting street art graffiti on cars and vans, like This Guy. If you know anything about it, please feel free to enlighten me in the comments!
