I was walking around Bristol recently and saw this rather large owl on the side of a building. It made me chuckle as I walked past.. I mean, who doesn’t love owls?

A few hours later on the way back down the same road (Gloucester Road) I saw this man working on some art with a projector, which was new to me.

Although the overhead projector bit confused me a tad (do many do that?), I was left appreciating these two examples of friendly street art. Although I don’t necessarily like the artwork on the second one (feels a bit like fairground ride artwork) I did like the warmth and feel of both.

Have you any examples of quirky street art which you can link to? I’d love to see some more.

Thanks

Paul

EDIT: Here is a picture taken by Jii Vennala otherwise known as @upsteeplebat from Finland on Twitter. She said: “I loved this cat, but someone painted over it.”

I asked if I could post the picture and she replied: “of course! :) Nothing remains of the cat today, the whole wall has been re-painted.”

Thanks Jii!

EDIT2: Here are some more examples from people on Twitter.
