art that even feidler can appreciate

on their regular morning constitutional, ann and feidler came across a beautiful chalk drawing by boston's one and only sidewalk sam. people who live in boston often trample his work without a thought and, until this morning, ann and the pooch were no exception. having never really thought about sidewalk sam beyond her occasional run-ins with his work in and around the city, ann returned home and found that he has a large portfolio of his local creations online. check 'em out here.

reminiscent of a quilt, the illustration celebrates this weekend's opening of the faith quilts project at the boston center for the arts, which explores the art of quiltmaking as a visual expression of people's beliefs.
