LEGO Flowers (6 Photos)

On the Upper East Side of Manhattan, one stoop recently caught the attention of everyone passing by.

Creator Kristi Hemric, together with her kids, transformed the entrance of their brownstone into a colorful garden made entirely of LEGO. Roses, orchids, tulips, daisies, and wildflowers built from bricks filled urns, planters, and hedges, turning the staircase into a bright and playful display that had neighbors stopping to take photos.

Earlier this month I helped one of NYC's most iconic neon shops move from their longtime Tribeca home to Sunset Park, Brooklyn. The company has a new owner Dave, who I like, an while its bittersweet to see them move out of Manhattan, Brooklyn is way better for artists at this point anyways.
Its been way fun and sort of a dream come true for me to bend for them for the month while their main bender, Jimmy is on vacation. Definitely feels good and validating to hear their designers tell me my bending looks pretty. They have lots of fun designs for me to make, and as per usual- the neat commercial work is feeding my art ideas- leading to a flurry of new art sketches partially inspired by some of the bending projects they are giving me.
Was fun loading that ol truck up with the bombarder an tables an way over a ton of tubing an whatnot. I hope they have some fun parties once they get more moved into the Brooklyn space.

The approval came after several other US attorneys across the country who were appointed by the Trump admin were unable to gain the approval of #judges in their districts.
