NYC streets are always dressed up for halloween. Tons of scary, freaky, and creepy images around every corner, and then there's the street art. You can find everything from gushing head wounds to men dressed as donkeys. Happy halloween!

Bortusk Leer monster.

The artist must bow to the monster of his imagination.

Richard Wright

A mushroom walks into a bar, the Bartender says "We don't serve mushrooms". Mushroom says "Really?" The bartender pulls out a baseball bat from behind the bar and yells "I said get out! Get out! Get out! Get Out!" The mushroom says "Ok geez", and leaves. A customer turns to the bartender and says "Don't you think you overreacted?" Bartender goes "You know I freak out on mushrooms".

Pablo Picasso

Ed: All right Savage! What do you want?

Hector Savage: I want a car out front! Something fun. A Porsche! Then I want a plane ticket to Jamaica. And a nice hotel. No touristy place. Something really indicative of the people and their culture.

Ed: Can't do that Savage! We're calling your bluff. Now put your hands on top of your head and come out!

Gregos: A Paris Masquerade

No mask like open truth to cover lies,

And to go naked is the best disguise.

I grasped a lovely masked procession,

And caught things from a horror show...

If it would last a little longer, though.

Oscar Wilde

I have all the characteristics of a human being: blood, flesh, skin, hair, but not a single, clear, identifiable emotion except for greed and disgust. Something horrible is happening inside of me and I don't know why. My nightly bloodlust has overflown into my days. I feel lethal, on the verge of frenzy. I think my mask of sanity is about to slip.

He is...The Most Interesting Man In The World

Do you not know that there comes a midnight hour where every one has to throw off his mask. Do you believe that life will always let itself be mocked? Do you think you can slip away a little before midnight in order to avoid this? Or are you not terrified by it? I have seen men in real life who so long deceived others that at last their true nature could not reveal itself...In every man there is something which to a certain degree prevents him from becoming perfectly transparant to himself, and this may be the case in so high a degree, he may be so inexplicably woven into relationships of life which extend far beyond himself that he almost cannot reveal himself. But he who cannot reveal himself cannot love, and he who cannot love is the most unhappy man of all.

Soren Kierkegaard

There are hundreds more of these painted faces all over Paris, mostly painted by Gregos, some done in collaboration. The blank face above flew in from Paris, and is ready to be painted- Brooklyn style...although you gotta admit the details in the original face are pretty awesome.
