USPS Sticker Art

The United States Postal Service priority mail stickers have been used for many many years by street artists, by drawing on the free USPS stickers and posting them around the city to get up.  

The UGLY Gallery (U Gotta Love Yourself) in New Bedford, MA, is celebrating that past time and curating a whole show dedicated to that side of street art, while creating a fundraiser to benefit 3rd Eye Unlimited, a annual festival with basketball, b-boying, graffiti, and more.

These are my contributions!
Since I was the mascot, "Arnie the Corsair!" for UMass Dartmouth, mascots have a special place in my heart, so this theme was fitting for me.  I have personally met all of these mascots!
