I haven’t seen too much stuff from the Cut Up Collective, until now…… And boy was it worth the wait! There is word via their own site ( www.cutupcollective.com ) about a month long event in the area, so hopefully I will spot loads more before it ends as they are simply amazing. The collective […]

Ozzie Update
Further happenings on the strange picture of “Ozzie” left in the streets of London. There was a code on the back which the finder was instructed to email to http://www.todonnalovebob.org which then prompts you to send your postcard back to them, with a promise of being contacted very soon. A week and a bit later, […]
WORD ON THE STREETS
If you take two weeks out to get all hot and bothered chasing Athens graffiti on the back of a Vespa and stop keeping an eye on them, people will get mischievous. Councils have seriously stepped up their buffing campaign and artists have suffered irresistible urges to spray, marker pen and wheatpaste on the walls. […]
Meeting of Styles ’08
Why is it the best events are always the ones you don’t know a thing about?! The Meeting of Styles was going on as we took a random walk round the back of the “trains in the air” wall to see if there was any update to the progress of Fridays half painted out ATG […]
Monday Update. . . .
Mighty Mo’s Monkey is cropping up in an amazing array of places….well actually not that amazing as they are nearly always on top of a train bridge, but placement and execution are second to none, all done with a roller and a very long pole. Parked my car IN FRONT of this billboard a few […]
It’s Still a MysterY To MME
I have often wondered if Eine is actually spelling anything out in placing his letters along our thouroughfares, from his latest spat of shutter realted daubery (at least in the order I have spotted them) here is what he has spelt so far : So, seemingly bugger all…unless it’s really subliminal?!

Cans Festival – Let Us Spray
Popped down to the third and final day of Cans Festival, this time with a mission to get past the security and get some photos on the exit ramp where all the un-billed artists could rock up and spray. Conning my way past with a few stencils in my mitts, the results of this mass […]

Here is a new laugh for you… I’m going to turn this into a daily update. Ahahahahahahahaha. Maybe. Nuff said.
Cancer Sell Street Art Tour
The freezing temperatures and shitty smells of Hoxton, Shoreditch and Brick Lane are readily tolerated by vandals going about their clandestine work on walls so a little dank mist and a few squally showers weren’t going to deter a hardy group of walkers in search of graffiti enlightenment and soul purifying charity support.

Toronto Graffiti – Wild Times
Toronto is a grey place. Grey skies, grey buildings, grey lake, grey roads, grey people. When the sun un-expectedly burst through the clouds I grabbed my camera and went looking for a bit of wall colour. I found brickloads, in a system of alleyways just south of Queen St West, between Spadina and Portland. Tons […]
Charity Graf Walk
“Cancer Sell” is an event that is being staged to raise funds primarily from the contribution of art works given by the artists on Flickr. I am doing all I can to help out a friend that I met through the site to make the night and the fund raising total a big success. Thanks […]
Dragon Bar RIP
The Dragon Bar, the legendary graffiti, drinking, snogging and fighting venue passed from our lives about 4 weeks ago. An effort had been made to torch the place, as stunningly captured by our friend on the spot Romanywg. Photo: Romanywg The inside of the decaying, stripped out husk which previously had been such a vibrant, […]
K-Guy – News, Views and Sightings
