Tom Bob’s Urban Transformations

There isn’t a storm drain, street sign, drainpipe, barred window, manhole cover, bike rack, or electric meter in New York City that is safe from Tom Bob‘s imagination. Seeing the “before” photos on the street artist’s Instagram feed makes you realize the creativity required to transform the most mundane, urban elements into a quirky characters, colorful animals and trompe l’oeil illusions. I love it and hope I can stumble across any of this works the next time I’m in the Big Apple!
