Practice Compassion?

Another Picasso paster spotted from The Producer BDB in the 18b Arts District,
joined by a Practice Compassion sticker riding above his head like a message just for us.
But um...the complete ridiculousness of having that message above a defaced image of Pablo Picasso
with his eyes crossed out and then complete it by drawing a penis in his mouth?...
This is either an amazing collab or someone has just offended the hell outta me, nice job!

The Grim Ripper

New digital print piece found on the side-door of the old Western Hotel on Fremont,
the Grim Reaper riding a skateboard with an abstract face and ever present scythe in hand.
The face is almost reminiscent of an plague doctors masks, kinda makes this artist unknown
piece a little more poignant with current events. Joined by tags and a Ray Moore sticker.

Group Meeting

A multi-piece collage of art is waiting for you in the alley behind the Velveteen Rabbit in the 18b.
This wall features an array of colors and different styles of artwork by various artists.
These out of the way, almost hidden pieces are always satisfying to find when you locate them.
A little effort can go a long way in this town, be it from the artist or just simply looking for art.

The Lady In Purple

Another find in another alley in the 18b, a beautiful stencil of a woman on a purple background.
This striking image is spray painted in white and joined by some tags and web address stickers.
Funny how artists spend so much time cutting out an stencil, then hit the streets painting as fast as possible.
Well, when your choices are commit or get caught? You kinda get in a rush sometimes, artist unknown. 

Alley Oops

We discovered someone in the alley behind Velveteen Rabbit having a bit of a break this weekend.
Tucked away from prying eyes and the graffiti, we have a hooded hipster kid relieving himself.
The amount of stained piss on the ground makes this piece work extremely well with its surroundings,
but it almost comes off like more of an instructional manual than artwork. Artist unknown.

Stay Fixed

A newer Milk the Bunny piece found downtown with the words Stay Fixed and another set of ears.
Omayra Amador is one of the first artists we became familiar with after moving from LA to LV,
her artwork has been a permanent and often times temporary fixture on the streets and walls of Vegas.
Our friends over at Paint This Desert.com recently ran a great article on her, make sure to check it out!

Friendly Monster

We found a monster lurking in the shadows of the night in the 18b Arts District,
well actually it was broad daylight and the monster is a piece from Olsenink. But still!
Olsenink has been hitting the city with a wide range of styles and colors with his pieces,
this latest one is aging nicely with a little help from some asshole who thinks messing with art is funny.
Haters, they will always let you know when your artwork better than theirs, So, umm. Thanks?!
