While walking along Bedford in Williamsburg the other day I spotted Head Hoods’ mini-vehicle
painted by UK’s Sweet Toof of Burning Candy Crew. By coincidence I’d met both of these
parties recently. I ran into the Head Hoods guys on a memorable freezing cold January day
in Washington D.C. They were selling their super clever hoodies on the street at Obama’s
inauguration. Last month, I met Sweet Toof and other Burning Candy Crew members last month
at the Black Rat gallery where Henry Chalfant and I launched our 25th anniversary edition of
Subway Art. The crew had painted canvases from some of the photos in the first edition.
