The streets in the vicinity of North 10th off Spring Garden Street in Philly are home to an intriguing array of street art. Pictured above is the work of Glossblack, a Philadelphia-based artist with roots in graffiti. What follows are several more images — all by Philly-based artists — that I captured on my recent wanderings around one of my favorite cities.
