I love happening upon art in out of the way places and Stikman is not only a master of the unexpected. but has been at it longer than just about anybody. His recent show at Pandemic Gallery in Brooklyn celebrated “20 years of playing with sticks” but I have it on good authority that he began his illustrious, stealthy, street career a couple of decades earlier.
While checking out the big, official OWB walls in Baltimore, be sure to keep a sharp eye out for the small, incredibly varied unofficial pieces that Stikman carefully placed around town to blend with their surroundings. Who says size matters?

I’ve been here in Quito , Ecuador for the past month working on a series of murals with kids ages 11 to 17 from 2 of the local schools. The murals all contain the running theme of biodiversity and celebration of Ecuador’s rich natural resources. The project has been a big success so far in that most of the children want to continue painting even after the mural is finished . I also feel as if i’ve inspired a lot of the kids in showing them that they can pursue art if they want to. I’m really amazed by the energy and enthusiasm these kids have. Even when i’m worried that they won’t finish up they always come through.Right now i’m on my last mural with them. Photo’s to come later.
