{Five For Friday} 5 favorite NYC street art works we saw

anymore, my favorite way to see art is on the street.  look up, look down, look around corners and in inset spaces.  you can find all kinds of interesting pieces by known and unknown artists.  it's fun to visit the different neighborhoods and boroughs in NYC on an art scavenger hunt.  we'd never visited williamsburg in brooklyn before, so we made it our street art search day.  here are 5 favorites from the city!

1.  ROA- corner of n. 5th st. and berry in williamsburg


2. cake, sofia maldonado, joe iruato, lny, gilf!, veng/rwk, and icy and sot- wall on n. 10th between roebling and union ave in williamsburg
