Portsmouth Street Art

Portsmouth Street Art
I spotted this amazing piece of street art on the side of a block of flats in Portsmouth, Hampshire. It's very near the town centre shops, but not on route I normally take, but it's pretty unmissable!

A quick bit of research reveals the artist is Curtis Hylton and the artwork is known as the "Pompey Pelican".

Please have a look large, on black. You won't be disappointed. Thank you.

You can check out more of the artist's work here: www.curtis-hylton.com

It's a work of art so a pat on the back for those that painted and for the people who allowed it to happen, A very nice capture especially on full screen Keith and it must brighten up the area.
Have a great weekend.

Thank you very much for all your lovely comments and yellow stars...........I'm very pleased you like this one.

For those who are wondering why this is not in the HFF groups, it's because I decided a while ago I was not going to take part in those groups anymore. I still view all your HFF shots and comment when I feel the need to though :-)

This is the sort of graffiti that is really worth the name. It must brighten up the lives of the folks who live here.

My thoughts exactly Amelia..........although I would class this as street art and not graffiti :-))

Thanks for looking and taking the trouble to comment..........much obliged.
