London-based street artist Ben Eine is in Philly this week to paint the entire alphabet on a bunch of storefront roll-down shutters around Fishtown and South Philly. This morning he’s getting started on a shutter at 7th and Jackson streets, and he’ll finish up tomorrow, when he spray-paints his final letter. The project is done in coordination with Mural Arts, who just kicked off it’s citywide “Open Source” project yesterday with a couple skateable sculptures at Paine’s Park.

Check out some of the shutters Eine has done so far in these shots from his Instagram feed:
