Hanksy strikes again with this images of a Tom Hanks-faced dog peeing in one of his usual spots in downtown Manhattan, on a wall along the stretch of Mulberry Street just north of the Kenmare Street – see the map below for exact location.
The contextual shots are a bit blurry and lossy, as they were taken quickly in low-light on an iPhone. But you get the idea.
One of our regular go-to spots for a coffee and a meet-up with friends is Cafe Select, a Swiss place on Lafayette Street on the border of New York’s SoHo and Nolita / Lower East Side neighborhoods. Select is one of those places where the waitstaff always bring the check with a cool, arty photo postcard. Here the postcards are photographic documents of Alpine pastoral scenery. We love them.
People walking among the massive, epic Richard Serra sculpture at LACMA in Los Angeles. We saw this same artwork at MoMA in New York City a couple of years ago. It’s a mesmerizing experience to walk through these giant pieces of curved steel.

We visited a friend’s office in Los Angeles recently and discovered with awe and surprise that her love of all things Wonder Woman had manifested itself in the form of shrine, a space in her office dedicated to various Wonder Woman posters, memorabilia, toys, schwag, souvenirs and even MAC lipstick. Full of awesome.
