The Spring Busy/Providence, RI, Minneapolis, MN

Recently took advantage of spring break for college visits, hitting up Providence, RI, for Rhode Island School of Design(RISD), and Minneapolis, MN, for Minneapolis College of Art and Design(MCAD). Not bad places, at all. I especially loved Providence, graffiti eeeeeeeeeeverywhere you looked, it was impossible to miss a scribbled on surface, stickered out street sign, or wheat-pasting ever now and then. Some shots of the environment i fell in love with//
Absolutely loved the style on this one
Little Italy, Providence. Caught a ride from
easily THE coolest guy on campus

College Hill, Providence.
Most the graff was there, craziness
They had a nice  little collection
at the RISD museum too..



This one was absolutely sick. The photo came out beautifully too, like the art is literally trying to escape and attack the bystanders.




It was definitely Springtime in RI..
Minneapolis was great too..not as much graffiti where i was in town, but i loved it nonetheless. And although the roads weren't too kind to longboarding..the school was pretty neat. Most everything was in one building with four levels, nice long hallways with white walls(i visited the week after their spring break, so classes were a little slow), waiting to be flourished with art. It was really laid back too, just a generally chill place. Not to mention, Fifth Element calls Minneapolis home = saw Slug for the first time in person in four years. He looked pretty business-oriented so i didn't want to bother him being all giddy and isht..next time though.. Dope city though, everyone was nice and the city had just an overall great Atmosphere. Some artwork from the ride//

  2. Thanks! yea..it would have been quite the accomplishment.. if i got into the school. i guess my kinda stuff wasn't to their taste. I applied to their painting program since they had no drawing program. I lack the style and experience they're looking for, just a lot more advanced than my level currently. oh well:/ maybe in the next lifetime
