Ode to the Street Artist

 

I have decided to start a gallery of my favourite street art images. Although the paintings and posters are not my art, the photography is mine. Choosing what to include, finding elements of the underlying structure that add to the image, and capturing the unique texture that each wall or surface presents are mine. Often temporary and fleeting, there is no simple definition for street art. It is often provocative art inspired by and found in the urban environment. It never fails to stop us in our tracks and linger in our minds eye. So in this gallery, I honour the street artist and the way in which they colour and influence our world.
