Merry Christmas - and to celebrate here's a stencil paste up by Jef Aerosol found off Brick Lane again. Man, did I get soaked trudging around finding these pieces but it was worth it in the end.

The first run of Eelus's classic Shat-at print has apparently sold out (though if you go to his website you might still be able to get a unnumbered copy). It's been re-released with a fetching red background now.

Here's a bit of his street work found off Old Street.

'I like drawing' was a surprisingly popular part of the Santa's Ghetto show. I say surprisingly because maybe you don't expect someone who writes on rubbish bags to take a place by storm. Anyway, walking around Brick Lane I stumbled on this old fridge and noted the tag. OK, we may not be breaking new ground here but it does provide me with a reason to link to I like Drawings website which is kinda interesting. There's even a new ILD print available from picturesonwalls.com now.

The Channel 4 News piece featured Dface and Eine and can be found on their website under Street Art - I can't get the video file to play though....

Well yesterdays post was on the inside but as Dface made clear in his recent Channel 4 appearance his work is best seen on the street. Quick safety pin stencil in Covent Garden:

This grin reaper print looked dope - but then at 400 quid it should be. It's got a clever tar like effect in the printing and is only available as a signed edition.

Well the Christmas lights in Oxford Street are a let down again so it's up to the smaller places to provide something with a hint of design.

The new Wembley Stadium is visible from all over London - this is a close up view from Wembley Park station.

Is it just me or does this look nowhere near finished?

Been a bit busy lately so no updates for a while. This ISN'T me by the way. I just liked the way the people blurred when walking past this stationary figure. I'm going to try this shot again at some point.

Last night was the preview of Santa's Ghetto (9 Berwick Street, Soho, London). Loads of good stuff to see but damn was it rammed. So I'm going to go back another time to get some more pictures, in the meantime here's a couple to get started.
