Here’s a very topical street stencil which is found somewhere in the in Hackney Wick, UK in favour of the Green Party. The work has been developed by the talented t.wat in his trademark stencil style. Whether or not in encourages you to vote Green, we’ll leave that decision to you…
Mr Zero has posted pictures of new work up on his flickr. A fantastic demonstration of his free hand graffiti skills.
The piece of art also has a little story behind it and an interesting location:
“my friend Sior found an abandoned building(it was a pioneer camp) somewhere in the forest….
we decided to visit it….another nice playground…
spent maybe one hour there and i put some quick ghosts…..”
So today kids we’re going to tell you a story of Crunchy the Credit Crunch Monster!
Ronzo first introduced his Crunchy monster in sculpture form back in 2009 when the recession was first announced by the Bank of England. Now the recession is over, Crunchy has appeared again but with additional duplicates around the City of London.
Great sculptures by Ronzo – these are a real credit to the London street art scene.

Shepard Fairey Stencil Collection by Bomit
A look around the stencil collection of the street art legend Shepard Fairey
He may be a boy by name, but Starheadboy is certainly a sticker man by nature. Starheadboy has a style which makes his work look unfinished and rough but it is this style that makes his work look so innocent and childlike.
Based in Seattle, United States, Starheadboy’s creative stickers and paintings are no longer limited to the walls of the US. You’ll find his work dotted around the globe in some of the most prestigious street art locations.
The sticker is a fantastic tool with its ease of getting up. Using stickers minimises the time spend on the street reducing the risk of getting caught. However, Starheadboy has moved into the paste-up area and has more recently been working with new characters for this new method of art.
From more by Starheadboy check out the photos below and also his flickr page.

Here is a great little video about street artist Dr. D who takes advantage of the bill boards that we love to hate. The video is a “short documentary following London’s hardest working Street Artist Dr D around the time of the expenses scandal.”
The video has been produced byJack Lomax and directed by Colin O’Toole.
