Southsea Street Art

Southsea Street Art
Another fantastic piece of artwork by local Southsea artist "My Dog Sighs".

This is on the wall of what used to be a huge Knight and Lee department store (and as it says on the wall, a branch of the John Lewis Partnership) which sadly, closed with a huge loss of jobs. It was one of two "flagship" stores in the shopping centre (the other being Debenhams, also closed down). I suspect both will soon be demolished and turned into housing.

Mine too Rosa............he's a genius! This one has was done a few weeks back, but this was first chance to photograph it. He has quite a following on Facebook and I use that to track down his new stuff.

The department stores were essential to the area, and it's really struggling without them. The large Debenhams store in nearby Portsmouth city centre has gone now as well :-)

Thanks for your nice comments and have a good weekend.

They have left a big hole in Salisbury and Weymouth as well Keith, and Denner's, later Beale's is a huge loss to Yeovil.
