Street Art - A New Challenge. Street-Art-1

January 4th, 2023

The above is the side of the Security Office at a street market complex which has recently opened.


The above is just one of the displays at the above market.


The above is an inside wall on a semi-derelict building.

I am sure that most members will have walked by at least one form or another of Street Art recently. I certainly have. Some are in the form of quite sophisticated paintings, whilst sadly, others are nothing more than vandalism. There has been quite a long ongoing thread on a forum to which I subscribe, entitled Graffiti - Art of Pure Vandalism. It got me thinking, let's have a Street-Art Challenge.

There is so much that can be done during the post-processing of Street Art photographs; once photographed very minor or extremely major changes can be made using Lightroom, Photoshop and many other photographic editing packages.

So please give it a go! No rules other than some item of Street Art must be the subject.

Dates - Any existing or new photograph can be used as this is the first round of the challenge.

End Date - 4th February 2023

Tag Street-Art-1

There is so much scope so please give it a go!!

@farmreporter - Wendy, if at all possible could this be included in the next SH*T List, please.

In the town where I live, there's an annual festival of street art. And various buildings around the town (including schools and blocks of flats) are being amazingly decorated by such skillful artists. I am always impressed at their skills of painting at such scale in such impressive ways. I wouldn;t even know which one to feature or what to edit on such elements. But I like the idea of such a challenge.

I have a few in the bank, so to speak. There's some great street art in my town (and a lot of less wonderful graffiti).

Great idea for a challenge John. I have some buried on my hard drive so I’ll dig one or two up and give it a go. Nice challenge for a rainy day.

Just clarifying something for my mind- are you only doing murals?

Absolutely anything that could be construed as 'Street Art.'

If the challenge proceeds then each host may introduce themes etc, but my starting aim was to keep it as broad as possible.

A few more examples of 'Old" and 'New' Street Art. Some of the older examples are a little worse for wear.
