Street Art #168

I’m a bit behind again and haven’t had a chance to give an update on the art next to Queens Park Station. Last I’d reported was back in March, and it actually changed hands just before I’d had a chance to share that piece by Binty Bint.

However within about ten days it changed hands again and turned into a mural of Alice, painting the roses red.  Quite apt as it’s right next to a flower stall.  It’s been Alice ever since, and I’m a little curious to see who’ll step up and take charge of it next!

This week’s street art was collected by Matt when he visited and Leicester* earlier this year.  Lovely mural, and you know I’m sure he told me why it was there but right this moment I can’t remember!

I’ve been meaning to do this one for absolutely ages.  It’s along the first stretch (the Golborne Road end) of Portobello Road, W10.  The sketches are amazing so do click on the individual images to view a larger version.

Tunnock’s Teacakes

Way back in the mists of time* I shared some work in progress photos of my Tunnock’s Teacake project.  I did actually get round to making some notecards, and I was even organised enough to put them in my Etsy shop.  What I didn’t manage to do was to mention that on here.  How, I ask myself, am I supposed to sell things if I never remember to advertise?

So here they are, looking scrumptious.  Go, buy some cards!

Street Art #165

A random selection of bits I spotted in central London back in April.  The chalk pavement art was pretty cool, but I think the colourful pigeons were my favourite.

Sunday Sketchblog #156

It’s been a while, hasn’t it?  I haven’t published a Sunday Sketchblog since January, and I haven’t done any drawing at all since mid-February.  There are reasons for that, which I won’t go into now.  Anyway I finally picked up my pen again this week, so here are some random sketches and hopefully I’ll be back on form again soon.
