A faded, chipping away, one point perspective wall mural of what West Broadway looked like around 100 years ago. The painter used greys black and white on the side of a neighborhood auto shop.
I work at a swanky hotel as a bellman and I see the same artwork every day. There are about a hundred pieces all over the place ranging from sculpture, paintings, and drawings. I'm not allowed in the hotel if I'm not working and i was denied permission to take pictures while i was in uniform. So on my day off i put on a hat and a pair of sunglasses to disguise myself and only had time to snap 3 shots before my cover was blown.This piece is one that i still like after looking at it every day for the past two years. Its a yellow tinted, panoramic photo of downtown crossing pasted on to a giant wooden "wheel" and a cross cut out of the middle.
These are ceramic blobs hanging from the lobby wall. They remind me of ABC gum stuck under tables and desks. Fancy pants hotel with gum stuck on the wall.
After work i usually go for a burrito at Boloco on Pearl Street. Some local artist is selling his work inside and has about 10 or more oil paintings displayed all over the cafe. I don't know who he or she is but they absolutely know how to grab my attention. I especially enjoy this artist's color selection and perspectives.
