art

I saw these Leonardo Da Vinci stickers while walking back from brunch in Los Angeles.

I thought they were both hysterical and great-looking, and if the artist is out there reading this blog, send some stickers to our office please!

Tag! Bang Bang Bunny

photoReader  Vanessa Flowers wants to know, “Who shot the bunny?”

We’re guessing whomever did it is somewhere on The Bowery, which is where this mural used to be!

“Dear Faran,

I saw this giraffe on the side of a building in downtown Reykjavik, and it kind of brightened my day!

-Emily”

This is amazing!

But why is the giraffe wearing 3-D glasses?   Wouldn’t it be so trippy if a giraffe’s spots were really in 3-D?  And more questions…

nepal“Hey Faran,

Check out the local street art in Kathmandu, Nepal…

It’s constantly changing and gives me something to enjoy on my way to work everyday!

I might snap a few more and send them your way.

This is amazing – we’ve never had anyone submit from Nepal before!

I love traveling and I love taking pictures of graffiti and street art.

I’ve taken many photos in Japan, Korea, and Amsterdam.

Enjoy!

Melissa”

I love all of these, they’re so colorful!  Some of these graphics would be amazing on a t-shirt or a pair of swim trunks.

A hand holds a birdie in Long Island City.

Thanks.

Is that a description, or a cryptic clue to buried treasure?  Still deciding in my mind…

sonsThe Hipster Daily tweeted us with this great set of Heinz Ketchup doors.

The weird thing is, we were going to blog our own set of tagged doors later today.

tag

This new tag is popping up all over Soho, NYC – I shot these two images last night (left) and this morning (right).  Any ideas where it comes from / what it is / what indie band or lip gloss line or dateless prom queen is claiming it as their own?  Let us know.

Tag! Bombay

graf5“Hi Faran.

I shot these sitting in a cab while in a slow moving sort of a traffic jam.  My plan was to use some of them as backgrounds for my street fashion shoot that day but it didn’t work out.

These graffiti here are a part of “The Wall Project” started by regular/irregular bunch of art enthusiasts in Bombay.

The art contains slogans of peace, love, nationality, Bollywood & some mathematical calculations.

gipsy“Dear Faran,

Ciao, from Florence Italy, also known as Firenze!

While exploring the streets I found this wall art and knew it was perfect for NYLON.

“Living like a gypsy in spirit” is the essence of NYLON: captivating, free, and wild.

More is coming your way…

Your biggest fan,

Amanda C.”

Grazie, Amanda!  If you have graffiti, don’t hold out on us: Email faran@nylonmag.com with photos you want to see on the NYLON blog.
