STREET ART

I have taken an interest in Banksy’s street art for a while now and in October 2010 the South West news reported that street art believed to be Banksy’s work was found on a hotel in Torquay. Later appearing on Banksy’s website, confirming the legitimacy of the work. www.banksy.co.uk
The Guardian recently produced an article detailing the cutting edge street art making it’s mark on the Portugese capital, Lisbon. Beautiful works.
Whilst looking through Oranges and Apples blog recently I came across an Edinburgh based street artist – Elph. The detail and expressions are mind numbingly beautiful, very serene with intoxicating colours. Want to get on the first plane to Edinburgh now to experience it close up.


And because she is lovely, the lovely Katie made me this lovely bag for Christmas, made me cry.
