The faces that surface on Miami’s walls — like so much of the art that makes its way onto the city’s public places — represent a wide range of artistic styles, sensibilities and backgrounds. The image featured above was painted by Brooklyn-based artist Isabelle Ewing. Several more images of faces that I captured on my recent visit follow:
Jacksonville, Florida-based Nico
London-based David Walker
Australian artist Seb Humphreys aka Order 55
Miami-based Abstrk
West Coast-based Sauteezy aka A Killer’skiller

What makes Miami so special for us street art aficionados is the incredible mix of cultures and styles that makes its way to the streets of Wynwood and its surroundings. The wonderfully diverse range of characters that continues to surface are testament to this. Featured above is a close-up from a huge mural fashioned by the Italian artist Zed1. Several more follow in this first of a two-part series featuring curious characters recently encountered on Miami streets.
Chilean artists Jekse & Cines aka Un Kolor Distinto
