TCK On Broadway

Open your eyes and get wise.

Jersey Joe is a Pc.

The multi-talented artist Rime gives Microsoft the co-sign.

Or is it the other way around?

On a side note, did you ever see that video of the old lady in the trailer park who wanted Rime to paint her trailer? No? You missed that video? Say word. Well peep it here.

Otherwise, watch the kid put in some more work:

Jon Naar: The Birth Of Graffiti

Here we have a video interview with photographer Jon Naar. Creater of the very first book published on graffiti in 1973, “The Faith Of Graffiti”.

He recently released “The Birth Of Graffiti” with unseen pictures from the same era. I stayed up and read it the same night I got it, marveling at the classic photo’s of old New York.

Check it out if you like that kinda thing.

Kaws on Broadway.

Here we have a young Kaws having some fun with advertisements on Broadway circa 1997.

Who could have predicted that he would later become a trend setter for hipsters with vinyl toys and black culture with Bape? I doubt even he could have foreseen his transition from graff writer to fashion taste maker.

Now it appears he’s branching off on his own a bit with the brand “Original Fake”

I have some hand drawn postcards that Kaws did around ‘97. I wonder how much they would go for on Ebay? Hmmmmm…

Anyway, you can see an old Kaws interview here.

The King Of Etch-A-Sketch.

I didn’t have the patience to do anything worthwhile on an etch-a-sketch as a kid, I was only able to get a rough version of my initials out at best.

Watching an Nba game a few nights ago, they showed an artists rendering of Charles Barkley done in etch-a-sketch. I thought it was pretty amazing that a toy created in the late 1950’s was still being used to show current events.

During an unrelated search, I happened to come across the work of an etch master called Etchasketchist.

Here are some of my favorites:

Tony Starks

^^ Evil soldier

^^ Mr. & Mrs. Spitzer.

^^ Master Bob Ross

^^ Master Yoda

^^ Obey sticker
