a love letter for you

Y'all know of my well documented love affair with street art...

So when I came across A Love Letter For You I couldn't resist sharing.



This sweet project brought together 40 artists from around the world, contributing their talents in beautifying Market Street in Philidelphia. The 50 murals are viewed from the elevated public transit train running along the street. Which murals you see depend on the direction which the train is going! So obviously a trip in both directions would have to be in order!

Not only do the murals contribute to a drastic revitalization of the physical environment, but the project gives back to the community, creating free signs for businesses, and training and employing locals in creating the art!

I LOVE LOVE this idea!

...some of my favorite murals...


(sticky notes and street art, these are a few of my favorite things!)
