Another addition to the catalogue of Stik images across East London, this one is Dalston, as always find it yourseves you lazy so and sos
Stik Couple
This one is cute, although Stik on the left seems to be looking for a better offer…?
Too busy with paid work so this is not even a proper post really is it?
Little bit spray fun....
I’ll get on me bike and search out something more interesting for you tomorrow… promise
Now this is a twat bike... forget the baskets and fixies
I have seen your brightly coloured knit wear pieces across the Eastend and initially I thought it was a rather amusing thing, you see us East Londoners are ribbed for our quaint ways such as riding Dickensian bikes, dressing like dandys and endulging in rather out dated pursuits such as lawn bowls and knitting. So to see Street Art in the form of knitting did make me chuckle.
Then after seeing a few more pieces and deciding it was actually a bit of an eyesore that might have, in the times of the Klaxons been suitable for aural consumption when we thought new rave was rather amusing.
Now you are getting these rather fetching banning orders and threats of fines.
Knit Art is banned
Here is my quandary, artists should not be fined for their art, I would never agree with that, but at the same time I just plain don’t get this flouro sensory dust up, so this might result in them being removed.
Spotted on Londonist
Banksy book
Banksy divides opinion but one thing you have to admit is that he is the most well known of our street arting chums. He clearly has made a fortune as everyone from Brangelina to your nan has a print from our undercover Bristolian. Another book is out now from Paul Gough called the Bristol Legacy, I wonder if Banksy gets a cut…
I like some of the stuff he has done but sometimes it does feel like he is using political statements for the sake of it, it feels a little diluted. I get he wants to say something but he can try and retain a little bit of perspective and sense of humour.
Also to be honest the whole Robbo vs Banksy thing started of as mildly interesting if a little disrespectful and now it just seems like a stunt that has gone badly wrong.
It is the final day of my little break from work and therefore the amount of galleries and mooching I can achieve will be much less. From here on in guys I am working for a living again, with that in mind I thought I’d sign off with a few images I took today.
Just off Mare St.
Corp...
Love this, mix of freehand, stencil and even print outs I think. I have not got a head for heights so not going to climb in order to find out
Along the canal
Urban redevelopment - face the facts
You can tell the Olympics is just around the corner, even the empty flats in the Eastend have been given a lil make-over, we wouldn’t want our touristy friends to see un-used boarded up eyesores. Bravo Hackney council
Just propped up in the Eastend
It's only a door dear
I’ve said it before, Street Art does not need to be beautiful in the classic sense, I’d take a nice and simple piece of humour over some of the staid stuff you can see… this is very cute
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
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?
