Now in its 11th year, Boone Avenue Walls — founded and directed by legendary Bronx graffiti artist WEN COD — continues to beautify the Bronx, as artists from far and near bring their talents to several sites beyond its home base in West Farms. This past weekend. over 30 artists transformed  Whitlock Avenue’s walls — directly under the 6 train —  into blazing outdoor canvases and stirring open-air productions.

The image featured above — one segment of a huge “Oceans Deep” production — is the work of the veteran South Bronx aerosol king Nic1. What follows is a small sampling of artworks captured while visiting Whitlock Avenue on Sunday afternoon.
