by KevinFreitas on 4/20/2012 @ 7:02am	Since we have some of the underworld nerdiness of Poison Apple and delicate beauty of the Tacoma City Ballet both sponsoring my suggestion for today's theme is: DARK MEETS LIGHT Interpret as you will. See everyone at noon!
by NineInchNachos on 4/20/2012 @ 10:09am	quite a prize bundle !
by KevinFreitas on 4/20/2012 @ 10:10am	Absolutely AND the radar is showing the rain may be passed us for the day!
by Hank on 4/20/2012 @ 1:40pm	Such a fun time chalking today, glad the weather broke.
by KevinFreitas on 4/20/2012 @ 1:41pm	Here are entries from today's chalk off! Great work everyone and make sure to use the word "vote" when picking your fav (and tell your friends to vote!) by Matt & daughter by Gini by RR Anderson by Meli by Georgia by Poppy by Troy by Adam the Alien by Debivans by Andrea by Kevin Freitas by Joel by Hank by Ashley by Justin & Sonia More over at KevinFreitas.net
by ALT on 4/20/2012 @ 1:49pm	...I'm going to need more time to decide. I had my vote ready for RxR, (loved that scolex creature when I saw it in person) but I just now saw the two depictions of Snow White by Debivans and Hank. I love the plump Snow White (candy apple in hand), and Hank's entry is a great use of space. The holes in the wall make it look as though Snow White got shot rather than poisoned. Oooh, dark. Nice. :)
by CaptainBritton on 4/20/2012 @ 1:52pm	I vote Debivans! (With a close second to Hank...very close!)
by Erik on 4/20/2012 @ 2:07pm	I vote for Hank's incredible piece!
by Joel 413 on 4/20/2012 @ 2:11pm	It was nice to get out there and chalk again! What fun with the ballerinas coming out to promote their show this weekend! And all the poison apples too! I wandered through the store before chalking today, and you can have some fun in there, let me tell you! There's some awesome stuff over there. I loved RR chalking in Stowe style. I think Ashley is gonna be a contender when she can attend on a regular basis this summer. But my vote this week goes to HANK, that snow white is great. debivans is a very close second.
by NineInchNachos on 4/20/2012 @ 2:14pm	thanks Andrea! the scolex loves all humans. I must vote for Debivan's snow white. Beware the poison apple! Get up, and join the Derby Dames!
by NineInchNachos on 4/20/2012 @ 2:15pm	Troy / Andrea / Hank your stuff looked GRRREAT!
by MarkMonlux on 4/20/2012 @ 2:24pm	I'm going to have to Vote for Hank this week. Debivans and RR tied for my second place.
by The Jinxmedic on 4/20/2012 @ 2:33pm	I vote for Debivans, with a very close second place to Hank. Hank's work was clean, perfect, and amazing- but Debivans had again, that "disturbing" quality which isn't quite so easy on the eyes. A winner!
by L.S.Erhardt on 4/20/2012 @ 2:38pm	I'm one of Poppy's "Prisoners of Work" today. As much as I like it, I gotta vote for Hank. Truly impressive...
by Duaflex on 4/20/2012 @ 2:41pm	I'm voting for DebIvans!
by NineInchNachos on 4/20/2012 @ 2:58pm	Hank has drawn Tacoma Snow White. . . hilltop drive by style! Don't wear red headbands !!!!!
by troysworktable on 4/20/2012 @ 3:02pm	I love the two Snow Whites for different reasons. I also like that they are at opposite ends of the park. Decisions... I VOTE for Debivans. I like the full-figured Rubenesque SW with the candied apple. Quite a different kind of poison, but all too fatal, methinks.
by Cheechmo on 4/20/2012 @ 3:06pm	I vote Hank
by TDI-Reporters-Notebook on 4/20/2012 @ 3:18pm	i vote for debivans.
by ALT on 4/20/2012 @ 3:25pm	Oh gosh darn it this was tough. I narrowed it down to RxR and Debivans, and after much vacillating and flipping back and forth between photos I've finally decided to cast my VOTE for Debivans. I so love RxR's poison-belching scolex monster, but I also love Debivans' beautifully done, (and as troysworktable put so well) Rubenesque depiction of Snow White. A fantastic and fun composition!
by Jooley on 4/20/2012 @ 3:48pm	I vote for Hank's. MAN that sure is cool
by Jesserkah on 4/20/2012 @ 3:53pm	I vote for Hank's Snow White.
by Tayah, Na-NA & Bear's Auntie on 4/20/2012 @ 4:03pm	Love the bbw snow white, but my vote's going to Hank, the use of 2 difference surfaces adds a lil something extra!
by Nine Lives Vintage Wears on 4/20/2012 @ 4:20pm	Hank's Snow White is pretty amazing!
by AbraCatDabra on 4/20/2012 @ 4:43pm	I vote Hank's lazing Snow White- she's lovely!
by NineInchNachos on 4/20/2012 @ 9:07pm	I posted some pics too!
by TacomaJ on 4/20/2012 @ 9:17pm	I vote Hank. A lot of fun today!
by AmericanWoman on 4/20/2012 @ 9:34pm	I vote Hank, so real I thought, "That Woman needs CPR!"
by jamesstoweart on 4/20/2012 @ 9:45pm	I vote for HANK! Courtney votes for Hank too. Sorry I wasn't there today. My son was sick and we had a father/son day off at home.
by KevinFreitas on 4/20/2012 @ 9:52pm	Hmm, great stuff today. Loved RR's, Meli's, Troy's and Andrea's work! Totally dug the unintentional sync between Hank and Debivans but I gotta vote for Debivans this week for his alt Snow White. Great job all! Two hours left to vote so let's get it on!
by Angela Jossy on 4/20/2012 @ 10:14pm	I vote Debivans, because its awesome and deserving of a Poison Apple prize, plus she makes me look skinny by comparison and that's good for my ego. hahaha :) Hank was awesome too though. And Andrea, RR and Adam always bring it!
by eConsultant on 4/20/2012 @ 10:15pm	+1 for Hank
by debivans on 4/20/2012 @ 10:18pm	Fun chalking today. I am going to VOTE for Poppy's Prisoners Of Work tribute. I have been there and it sucks! Speaking of work and keeping with the Snow White thing..Hi Ho! Hi Ho! It's off to work..you know the rest.
by kathy on 4/20/2012 @ 10:51pm	I vote for Andreas vibrant and expressive work. Loved the Snow Whites too. Nice job everyone!
by Hank on 4/20/2012 @ 10:59pm	I vote debivans
by Bjr on 4/20/2012 @ 11:46pm	Hank like how you used the wall and side walk the bricks made for awesome depth . That is why I use both surface so much , but I must Vote For Andrea`s wicked glowing apple . I`ll see everyone Friday after next Friday so chalk on all my Chalkies.
by tacomachickadee on 4/20/2012 @ 11:51pm	I vote for Hank.
by Adam the Alien on 4/20/2012 @ 11:52pm	My vote goes to Poppy.
by KevinFreitas on 4/21/2012 @ 7:41am	Wow! It was a back 'n forth tug-of-voting-war battle royal between Hank and Debivans but, in the end, 1st and 2nd place go to... 1st - Hank 15 2nd - Debivans 10 Poppy 2 Andrea 2 Hank & Debivans, please email Melissa at Tacoma City Ballet (melissa@tacomacityballet.com) to let her know which show (today or tomorrow) you'd like to attend. I'll give her a heads up too. Likewise Hank I'll let Jooley over at Poison Apple know you won their gift certificate so you can pick it up anytime. Great job everyone!
by Hank on 4/21/2012 @ 8:14am	Awesome, thank you sir! So much fun chalking yesterday.
by debivans on 4/21/2012 @ 1:17pm	Thanks to all the voters. Can't wait to get my ballet on! Anyone care to claim my extra ticket and join me? I plan on attending the 3pm Sunday show after the Wayzgoose Letterpress Extravaganza. First come, first served. If interested please contact me at debivans@yahoo.com or find me at Wayzgoose.
