New graffiti

We have a new player in town - Venom. Mostly stencilled names with the odd freehand V. Most stylish work is on the power substation off Dunley Road towards Areley Common; sadly black paint on a dark brown door doesn't real stand out.

My main work is stencils pls take a stroll up engine lane by the side of weatherspoons to see some of my work. There are lots of my stencil pics around town some are copies of banksy and other famous street artists and some are my own

Well I can hardly officially condone your work. From my own personal view if you're not covering up someone else's work; either other graffito, posters etc. or otherwise impressing your work on others I see no harm.

That said lay off the street furniture would you; it really does need to be visible for a reason.

As an aside I saw someone who'd taken exception to your work with a pithy expletive; not the beginnings of a turf war I hope.

As an aside do you know who did the girl with teddy bear and shovel that was wiped from the underpass leading from Crossley in Kiddy? That and the satirical McD next to it (which was wiped super-fast) were very good.

I don't do much work in Kiddi (yet!) and unfortunately o
Don't know the street artist who did the teddy bear with the shovel although I'd love to meet her! I was however fortunate enough to see the piece before it was buffed! I take it by street furniture u mean bollards and road signs. The only ones I've done are down by the power station hut we have spoke of before but it's a good point well made. Please try to understand I put 99.9% of my work on government owned or government maintained Walls buildings etc. Yeah the expletive u mention I believe was on the side or subway and was buffed and covered by me last night. Just some kid local with a permanent marker trying to make a name for himself by starting something with me. His name is GEIN I don't know him and don't want to. For me street art is about stencils and pictures I like people to see my work and have something to think about. Thanks again for your feedback FlipC 

I kept thinking "Damn forgotten my camera" Then the one time I remember it had been scrubbed.

Saw the work on the hut; stands out now. Heh a little overboard on the surrounding - less is more my friend, less is more :-)
