Street Art
Lovely pictures , I enjoyed seeing these - thank you for posting ? I too have come to appreciate such street art recently, and I totally agree with your distinction between street art and graffiti. I also have been noticing them more, at home and on my travels, and am also unsure as to whether they are appearing more, or I'm simply more aware of them. Again, lovely pictures ?
