“I suppose you have heard of Mr. Coward’s pranks. He has, as the Scotch call it, a Bee in his Bonnet.” ~the Reverend Philip Doddridge’s Letters, 1790
Buzzing with pranks of his own, Street Artist Elbow Toe’s first street piece in New York since last summer appeared as a 14′ x 6′ hand colored wheat paste. According to online accounts Mr. Toe informs us it’s title is “Say I’m The Only Bee In Your Bonnet”. Stung by the mystery of the piece, the title has our minds swelling with possible explanations about what it could mean. Ah well, the onward march of spring continues in our midst.
