okay lets see how this goes, the thing i usually upload photos with isn't so.

olde sketch painting, as i haven't really done any lately. maybe that should read sketchy old painting.


Nuther olde, this one was mostly about coverall and a tag to be read both ways. I only really ever liked the dude in the hoody, the robot is one of Ashley Woods. try http://www.ashleywoodartist.com

Hand painted landscapes by Svorn, along brunswick st into the valley(gnuckgnuck). 

Couldn't read it, didn't stop to try. But i really love this simlpe thing. its on the road that comes over the story bridge. It's like the work of fairies, which is cute and sweat(sweet?) when you don't have to live with one.

Don't know if this is from a band or brand logo, but i like the compositon, inclueding the overspray. At first i thought these a riff off the bacardi label, but now i think some band like HIM(or is that a brand?). It seems to me rare that street workers achieve this kind of polished logotype. I canni say if that is through deliberate lo-tech methods, zero engagement in formal aesthetics or a misdirected sense of placement.Ie;telling themselves that 'to work in this field i should inhabit a particular aesthetic', forgetting that the icons and idols of the scene persue new or varient aesthetics. Swoon= strong characterisation and community through cut outs and now printmaking; Above= what a focus on placement can do, even without a tasty aesthetic; Sat= the elements of old school graff applied to figures rather than letters(heavey outlines,bright keylines, form reduced to key elements and then distorted etc).

top edge of the valley, just past Ann st. The 'tiger army' shticker caught my eye, big comercial looking thing that it could be. Only seen this one, and if anthing seems remotly similar the atari/kaos and anarchy text stickers around the same area( i thunk i saw some stencils around too) are it.{Which talks to my thinking that the output of these artists is trackable. And not withstanding my earlier assumption that simon was an alias of listers[pun intended]}.However that green skull a peelin' is part of a larger group.

close up of pidgeon sticker from latrob st. 

off brunswick. with the yok, kill pixie, 1337, shida and badteeth? 

somewhere near the dendy. especial notice the nightrider(shit could be a happyone too), better check... 

At skinnies(recordshop) with shida and zklr. picked up a streets zine called the wanderers today... 

city beach. you canni just have brand name stickers.. 

near rocking horse records in the city. 

detail of rocking horse wall.with byrd skull+ leet(1337), +up+ fragment of shida. 

Outside central. 

Ann St near 610. oh ah! Got to say how i like that mid tone, not grey but speckled spray. 

someone has already had a go at the sticker on the other side of this pole, it had a bonus skull. seems a lot of the stickers i brought up are not weathering very well at all. 

could be a dog or an ape, hard to say in those sunglasses. 

misterious girl and large byrd stickers in the valley. Might wait to see if these upload before doing the other10. actually found an A4 version of these grl, but she was ugly okay. 

MD and skull + text bomb and others, in the valley. 

Kiam77 style MD sticker and misterious girl. 

Kiam77 style MD stickers.Was thinking about doing a series of md's in the style of... um Kiam77, Joan(Kaosdesign), Sat, Otis(lowflow & cap)... 

latest edition of stickers.Though i can't help feeling i should turn the 'this is where we live' bit into an MD...
skint i av put a copy of that belco piece in the merit/recpect section.

old Canberra studio, sniff sniff. 

Part of a series? these girls are all over the place each with a unique under fill.Typically hard bold shapes. I like these a lot. 

Another in a large enjoyable series by someone i haven't met yet. Normally you see one in a run and thats plenty, even if its a tidy little image. The pleasure becomes following the trail, not the pictures.. But these if, i have seen 10, i didn't like 2 of those. There are people who know me laugh about this, "liar!only two!UNLIKLY!". But its true, these are mostly really nice.

latest sticker run..
