Who are the people in your neighborhood?

Allyn Howard, a local Carroll Gardens artist, recently started a delightful new blog, sharing her daily findings on art, culture and neighborhood. She was kind enough to include us in a recent post on blipadee, where she's featured local Brooklyn faves like Le Petit Cafe and Cozbi, as well as covering neighborhood events such as our rainy day Court Street Fair. Being an artist herself, she's got a great eye for capturing interesting moments and gorgeous treasures in her own stomping ground, and her blog is brimming with colorful photos. Besides blogging, the very talented Allyn is also the creator of a series of paintings and characters, vibrant and playful, ideal for children's rooms. Some of her work can be seen on her website. Thanks Allyn!!
