by You know what I thought when I was looking at these? So much talent is without a voice these days. Time was when graffiti defaced – now it embellishes. Just click on one of the pics to enter the gallery. Critical Dispatches – great blog.
I had a little time to kill this afternoon, so I went for a wander around Camden in search of new street art. Sure enough I found this bold new piece by Tony Boy near Camden Mews.
Ever hungry for more, I continued on my little adventure and snapped a few more pieces. Wherever possible, I have added the artist’s name, however, as is the way with street art, this is often a lot easier said than done. Many artists do not sign their work or other more unscrupulous painters have been known to scribble over an artist’s tag. On some occasions, I consulted the brilliant London Calling Blog (who have been known to find works around Camden before me) for names. Anyway, enjoy.
Wow, those are amazing. I’ll have to go back and look at them when I’m on my laptop. I’m using my phone right now, but even on the small screen they’re wonderful.

Those works are amazing! That kind of street art really is art.
What I hate are those tags scribbled everywhere that deface buildings, signs, vehicles & trains, & whatever those dodos find to make themselves feel important.

Great talent here. Once I indulged myself and decorated one wall (interior) of our garage with a dragon. It is quite a challenge to get the imagery correct at such a large scale. I am full of admiration.
