Street Art/Graffiti (GRC Post 6)

One thing that I have been noticing all throughout London is the incredible street art (or graffiti). It is not something I am really too fond of, but I have seen a lot of really cool, creative designs!

This one in particular is one of the funniest ones I have seen. Some may think it is disrespectful to the Queen, but I think it is just really creative. It is definitely showing the Queen in a different light. I noticed that when people were walking past it, that most were laughing. I personally don't see people really laughing or smiling in London, so it was nice to see. I liked how something like graffiti could make someone's day a little better.

Here is another one that particularly drew my attention. The size of this one was incredible. You can't really tell by this picture, but it was around the size of a garage door. Something like this would be hard to do on a small canvas, but I can't even imagine how hard it would be to do on something this large. I think that street art/graffiti usually makes a place look bad, but this one actually made the area look better. It is not just some scribbles of someone's nickname, it is catalo real art that took someone a lot of time. If other street artists did designs like this, then streets and the world would be a much prettier place!
