Why You Should Follow Kyle Steed on Instagram

You know Kyle Steed. Well, maybe you don’t know Kyle Steed, but you know his work. You’ve seen it on the front windows of Henderson Avenue boutique Milk and Honey and downstairs at the now-shuttered Union Bear in the West Village. Maybe you’re a fan of his biggest work, the Dallas City Mural, a gigantic stretch of black and white hovering over the Trinity Strand Trail in the Design District, reminding runners and cyclists: “Ask not what your city can do for you, but what you can do for your city.” Most likely, you’re one of the 164,000 people who follow the hand-lettering artist on Instagram, making him one of Dallas’ most-followed accounts.

A whole new way to track your fitness while on the go. Earn points and stay healthy all in the palm of your hand. Another great idea from a real traveler I’m helping bring to life, with pen and paper of course, for @marriotthotels #travelbrilliantly campaign

So there’s this corner store I drive by all the time on my way to and from @weld — Sadly this is after they replaced all the original hand-painted signage with shitty vinyl signs. Why do we so often settle for less than the best? #vscocam
