Check out the latest from Nicolina, the East Village artist who does the holiday windows at The Bean, among others (though apparently not Nino’s this year; the pizzeria is getting a new look, complete with wooden communal tables).

We’d like to think that’s EV Grieve in the NYU sweater. Hey, if it can happen to Scrooge…

Update | 11:15 a.m. We’ve now heard from Nicolina, who said that she and Walker Fee painted the windows Friday night. She also did the windows at Two Boots, complete with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cameo (take that, Homer!). In all, Paint the Town does about 40 holiday windows around the city each season.
