Decorated City
I was in Berlin for a week and instead of tourist snaps I took pictures of the street art that covers the city. Scrawls, stencils, tags, paintings, posters and stickers cover every area of the city- which is great, after all why keep all the art indoors in a gallery?

Current Inspiration: Blexbolex
Just a short post about what I'm currently looking at/jealous of. Currently loving the work of French Illustrator Blexbolex whose work I came across in Germany. His work is simple, graphic-style screenprints with a childlike quality about them. Sadly for me, he doesn't have much of an online presence but heres a link to an article from one of my favourite websites 'Grain Edit'. Anyhoo I recommend his book 'L'imaginier des gens'
