Oslo“Hi Faran,

My husband/dj partner saw this amazing wall of Star Wars inspired graffiti on a recent trip to Oslo, Norway.

Star Wars AND graffiti – how can one NOT love it?

There are more pictures in our blog.

–Sandra B (aka Sandy Loops)”

Oooh, Oslo.  (Ooh, Star Wars!)

Tag! Through the Looking Glass

Graffiti“Hi Faran,

I saw this on a train going from Rome to Florence, Italy!

The tags were great, and juxtaposed quite nicely with the old castles in the hills above them.

I love Nylon, and this new blog feature!

xoxo, Emma Kimbrough”

Thanks Emma!  Except… um… we’ve had this Tag! blog for almost four years…

Tag! Squirrel Nuts

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

WSFactory-21“Hi Nylon!

Wanted to share some of my sKwirl stenciling and stickering while in Wynwood during Art Basel Miami Beach and Paris for a show I was in at Gaite Lyrique a few weeks ago.

You can find The Weather sKwirl™ and friends on walls in Paris, Berlin, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Providence and more!

You might also enjoy my character apparel — bringing my street characters to the fashion world.

Best, kHyal™”

Thanks for the cool squirrel (but maybe lose all the trademark signs?)!

Tag! Toronto

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

Einstein“Hey Faran,

I was walking through an alleyway in a neighbourhood of Toronto called Yorkville, which typically stays relatively free of street art, when I noticed this handsome dude staring at me.

He is holding a message I’m always happy to share, which is why I’m sending this to you.

I hope you enjoy!

Best, Lily.”

Tag! Vancouver Love

photo“Hey Faran,

I walked by this graffiti at the start of a Friday night. It’s at a bus stop on one of the busier streets.

Like my friend said when I texted it to her…

“Don’t you just love love?”

-Karenna”

Cool.  Graffiti always looks neat on Instagram too, huh?

I subscribe to NYLON and think its the coolest mag out there!! Hope you like the pic!

Thank you for the graffiti.  Unfortunately, we are now starving.

Tag! Chile

Tuesday, January 24th, 2012

Peru“¡Hola Faran!

The other day, I was purposely lost, wandering the streets of Valparaíso, Chile (which just so happened to be featured in the “En Route” section of Nylon’s March issue!) and I stumbled across some pretty cool graffiti on “Cerro Alegre,” loosely translated as the Cheerful Hill…a fitting name when you get a look at the amazing wall art that is absolutely everywhere!

Some of it colorful, some of it kind of trippy, and all characteristic of this amazing city.

Hope you like. :)

Tag! Oscar Le Grouch

Monday, January 23rd, 2012

oscarfar“Hey Faran,

I love all the graffiti stuff you’ve been posting and couldn’t resist sending you some of my favorite pieces that I’ve seen.

I’m assuming the first image is mosaic work by the infamous Invader in Paris.

Cheers!  Sara”

We love The Grouch!  (Also, this is a good time to plug the True Mud episode of Sesame Street.)

Tag! North Carolina

Friday, January 20th, 2012

North Carolina“Hi Faran,

Here’s a few from an alley in Wintson-Salem, NC (a place where you wouldn’t normally expect to find such cool graffiti).

The second photo is an upward-angle shot, to emphasize the paint ripping from the stone wall.

Hope you enjoy it, Nylon :)

–Allie.”

We love North Carolina!
