Mural Madness
Walking around the streets of London there are things to see everywhere. This past weekend I went to a beautiful flower market and when walking about saw these awesome wall murals. As we can see in this street art, design is all around us, even if you are not consciously thinking about it it is there. The mural on the left catches your eye right away with the brightly colored blocked against black and white text. The mural on the right uses the circular shape and the black background to create a perspective from which any body on the street can look at these two children, who are on chains, playing rock paper scissors for an apple with a sunset and war planes dropping shells in the back ground. The thing I love about street art is that it is always trying to send a message. Whether or not you understand that message is a different story,but there always is one. It is amazing how through an image you can tell an entire narrative.
