Yawn

More same-same street art under construction in Enmore. Can we have something different please? We've had to look at this stuff since the 1980's.

Fuckwit of the Year

What an Australia Day present...

Some complete and utter tool has painted over the beautiful signage on the wall of King Street Cyclery, Newtown. This vintage motor garage signage probably dates back to around 1940 and was a wonderful piece of history. I just can't believe somebody would paint over this. A piece of Australian history is destroyed forever. Why don't you paint over "I had a Dream" while you're at it? Whoever did this: you are a complete and utter small dick fuckknuckle

There's some many great artists doing wonderful street art in the area and then we have this. And taggers. It doesn't just make me angry, it makes me depressed. Rant over.

Vegan Meat Pies of Newtown

Another street sign for Egan Street gets an extra "V", right in front of the Pie Face pie shop, a festival of manufactured meat, nice one. We hate to admit it but Pie Face does a hellava sausage roll, sorry vegans.

If you Gnome Chomsky Like I Noam Chomsky

Gnome Chomsky (boom-tish) spotted on King Street, Newtown. The next day I went to get another photo in better light but poor Noam was just dust crumbs...

Wow!

An amazing piece of street art in Enmore. Freaking sensational. Whoever did this, we love you :-)

In Case of Inspiration...

A lovely little piece - a wee wooden first aid box affixed to a wall with chalk inside, should you have inspiration. In the alley behind the Sly Fox Hotel in Enmore.

I came back the next day and poor old baldy was gone...

Low Fire Danger

Strangely gruesome. A doll sporting the thinking bit of a decapitated teddy bear. Stuck on somebody's front fence in Erskinville. I love this city.

A skull affixed to the footpath outside the University of Sydney on City Road. As you do.
