James de la Vega's Sidewalk Chalk Art

One dreary morning, I peered out my window overlooking my residence’s courtyard and to my surprise, the courtyard was written all over. By whom? None other than de la Vega. He got permission from residence security to draw all over our courtyard. It brightened my day for sure.

It’s used to be catch as catch can, but it’s actually become pretty easy to catch de la Vega’s art now that he’s opened a store on St. Mark’s Place.
