This time of the year is special. Last spring I was taken by dappled light as it fell upon the house and the old fence. But that didn’t last as trees were felled and the fence was replaced by something smooth, implacable and untouched by time. But the setting sun …

Wooster on Facebook
Each and every day we get more excited about the discussions that are taking place on our Wooster Collective Facebook page. The responses to our recent questions:
For those who risk getting arrested while putting up street art or writing graffiti: What motivates you to do it?
What’s currently inspiring you?
How would you describe the “role” that graffiti or street art plays in your life? What does it “add” or subtract?
If I gave you $50 today, with the condition that you had to spend it on “art”, what would you do with it?
If you haven’t yet checked it out we can’t recommend it more highly. It’s become an incredible companion to the Wooster blog.
Also, we are indeed on Twitter. Not as “Wooster Collective” but as Marc and Sara.
