During a trending trip to Silverlake, I encountered a playful wall of Monsieura lollipop creepers along Hollywood Blvd. This is a personal term I coined for these lanky, top-heavy, shoe-wearing graffiti characters. At first glance these illustrations are quite mischievious, with their eerily toothy smiles and asymmetrical eyeballs. The only neutralizing features are the energetic legs and accompanying footwear. A parralleling and more commercial take on these long-legged strollers appears splashed across a whateverittakes bag at Urban Outfitters. Another example of art imitating life.
