Temporary, permanent, sweet, shocking, whimsical, thoughtful… Art can be anything, I think, except boring. And while a picture may be worth a thousand words, it is much more than mere information. It speaks to a different part of our selves. Art is more of a waking dream than a speech, and it should never be simply “understood.” It should be felt, intuited, in short: It should be experienced.

“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.” ~Edgar Degas
“Life beats down and crushes the soul. Art reminds you that you have one.” ~Stella Adler
“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.” ~Henry David Thoreau
“He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has set eternity in the human heart.” ~Ecclesiastes 3:12

You have found some incredible street art. I had trouble thinking that someone could create such fantastical pictures. I have seen some street art that does not compare with what you are sharing with us before. I am glad i stopped by this morning to check it all out. Thanks for locating and sharing this street art !

I think this is your biggest collection ever. Amazing how much creativity is out there. I would love to know exactly where some these are, as you seldom see stuff like this in the travel brochures.

I caption them with source info when I know it. But online sites don’t often list the artist and/or location.
