Stik & A N Other
Think it is a new one as I have not noticed this before, it is pretty big and in a fairly clear place off Old Street. I think this might be the start of the piece, and that there is more to follow as we have seen before, Stik likes to re-visit his pieces in the future.
Below is a great piece as well, huge head, not sure who that is, any thoughts ya’l?
Mobile toof
Another piece in East London, it seems every corner you turn there is another piece, maybe he should try another part of London or even jump on the train and head to Manchester, they could do with a little help.
Just off Mare St and London Fields, well hidden mind…
Mooching around London, spying what I can spy, taking a few pics and showing you lot…
This piece I would like to name Golden Showers.
I think the name is rather apt....
This is a massage parlour on Great Eastern St, I have not noticed the graf before, it used to just look quite dull and seedy… now it looks rather alluring and I am wondering what ‘Canary Flavour’ is, still not sure I’ll be going in there mind
Happy finish?
Possibly the most photographed in East London? Possibly. Always being tweaked and added to, nice addition with the ‘Home Sweet, Home Less’ script.
Ain't that the truth
RDM anyone?
The canals of London town offer a menagerie of art works, it seems these arte the training grounds for the next gen before they head to Shoreditch and the like and really start showing off. Regardless you can spot some cool stuff down by the waterside, although at this stage I have not got the foggiest who did them
Hidden away under a bridge on the canal
Get on the canal near Hommerton and have a wonder along and see for yourself. If you get as far as Springfield Marina you could have a pint too… who would have thought I would turn in to a citizen advice bureau.
Pins Toof or Snip Foot maybe?
Also those boat people are a thoroughly nice bunch too, not all crusty at all. Every day is a school day for me right now
Featured a lot of Sweet Toof recently, because he is bloody everywhere, the guy must have just finished his day job because he is everywhere.
On Tuesday I was wondering home and spotted someone just starting off a piece, I saw the outline of some gnashers so slyly took a pic and scuttled off.
In the beginning....
Today I returned and it is finished, here it is in all it’s glory
Ta daaaaa
Clean Toof
Given the location away now...
All I’ll say is it is Off Hackney Road, very simple to find
Graffiti Graveyard
Today I found a gem, an absolute gem in the East End. I have never seen it before on any other website or been told about it…. surely others have spied it?!
Bang-up, back-up
I have named it Graffiti Graveyard because it is a wasteground, a dead area which may have formally been to be a basketball or football court, now it is littered with rubbish, beer cans, spray cans, bins, wood and general crap. But on each and every wall of this enclosure there are bright, vibrant sometimes poignant pieces of street art. There is a tribute from Team Robbo to their fallen leader and various other RIP pieces and tributes, therefore the Graffiti Graveyard feels spot on.
King Robbo
Jobzy
Now for any regular readers you will know I am conflicted when it comes to giving away the exact location of pieces of street art, personally, and it is only my opinion, I think it should be discovered and not advertised explicitly. So all I will say is that it is in the Broadway / London Fields area of London.

Toast anyone?
Plus there is a naked man….
Nice beard, small dick though
All in the eyes
At the Hales Gallery in East London in the Tea Building to be exact, there is a small but perfectly formed exhibition by Dutch artist Sebastiaan Breemer called Egmont Re-Visited which teams photography with really intricate dot work in white to create shading and contours on the photographic paper.
Faded beauty
The photographs are a mixture of old shots from Breemer’s family collection and his Brasilian wife’s, some new and some very old. Each image has it’s own emotion which is then textured with the white paint work to bring an even more emotive feel, then finally a few coloured spots.
It is only on for a month until March 5th and it does not feature any of his coloured photos but well worth the trip to the Hales Gallery
Wondering around London on my bike taking in a few things as I go….
London Faberge egg hunt is underway, I’ve seen loads but cannot be bovd to post all of them, if I spot a nice one, I’ll be sure to share… and maybe take home
St. James Park Egg
Some people feel deep shame for eating McDonalds and will not admit it… I am sometimes one, but I have come out to bigger things. I eat a double cheeseburger from time to time… and what?
Anyway liked this just off Brick Lane… not easy to spot but funny and a bit cute I think… call me crazy ya’l. I think it amused me as it is a comment on society, so many kids in the UK are reared on the golden arch and here is a baby ‘Donalds!
Happy meal anyone?
Street art doesn’t need to be beautiful in an artistic way, it can be simple, it can be words and it can be something that makes society look at it’s self or just raises a lil smile
One Love
All around the east end there are pieces by Sweet Toof, they are not exactly difficult to spot, seeing as they are usually huge and pretty bright.
On my daily mooching around London today I cycled a different route and saw this parked up under one of the arches near the Hoxton Tube station. It would seem that Street Art is now on the move as well, maybe it is for a Sweet Toof roadshow, or maybe not.
Toof trailer
Sweet Toof also leaves pieces around the place for eagle eyed Londoners to keep, a mate of mine found a copy of the Metro with the cover completely transformed with the trademark Sweet Toof design. Lucky get!
Saw this today in Hackney, do not know too much about it as yet. Found something referring to Medellin, which I thought was the Columbian drug cartel…. I’ll try and find out some more, unless anyone can fill in the gap?
I know nothing so far....
Anyways it is off Hackney Road
