Street Art - SMC3

Today's street art is on the same wall as yesterday's work by Ox King.

Today's street artist is known as SMC3 and this mural was also part of the Hit the Bricks festival in Newcastle and Mayfield a few years ago.

Apparently Newcastle Council were going to promote another festival this year, but unfortunately Covid 19 put paid to that. I do hope that some time in the future it can be arranged again as the artworks really brighten up the city.

That's very interesting street art.

Everything is putting on hold. I guess the artist still can working on it.

Wonderful mural, love the colours. Covid is really putting people all over the word in a terrible state.

[Marnie]

Needless to say, I love it.

[Margo]

Sure is better than Graffitti

[Casablanca]

So were these brick walls purpose built for the festival or are they already buildings around the town?

[Babs]

@casablanca They are already buildings around town. This wall is at the end of a row of shops on Maitland Road, Mayfield.

[Casablanca]

@onewing Thanks, I was intrigued! They all make quite a display, eh?

[Lesley]

Excellent. Great info.

[Peter]

Great piece of street art Babs, I like the way Ox King has created the illusion that the image is standing off the wall, most impressive:)

[Susan Wakely]

Another great mural.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Another wonderful mural, but not as appealing to me as the one you posted yesterday !

[haskar]

Great mural

[Lou Ann]

This is so interesting. The sharp lines make it so different from the usual street art.

[Kate]

It’s wonderful that the street art hasn’t faded

[Lil H]

[Ingrid]

Very nice! Another one to have a long look at. It reminds me of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. My kids watched that about 12 years ago, when they were really small. They had a machine that helped solving problems. I liked the series too ;)

@k9photo Thanks Kate. I believe they coat the artworks so they don't fade and also if anyone tries to tag over them or tries to ruin them, it can be cleaned off without damaging the original work.

@ingrid01 Brought back memories for me too, it does have a bit of a cartoon feel to it doesn't it.

[Faye Turner]

That is a cool mural

[Lois]

Nice street art mural! Mickey Mouse hands!

[Pat]

Amazing work of art, you have some great stuff there.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Interesting piece- did they have some sort of printed material that explained what the mural meant?
