Street Art (With A Splash Of Genius) ♥

Okay, so we've previously witnessed the sheer BRILLIANCE that can occur when street signs and musical lyrics collide, but what about the spectacular imaginativeness that lies in clever and creative street art? (Because some people - such as myself - observe a gutter and think ''hey, that's a gutter!'' And then other people languidly stroll by and think ''hey, that's not a gutter - that's an opportunity for an incredible piece of ART!''
Observe the ingenuity:
There's two patches of grass! With a cheerleader! Now, obviously I'm not a mindreader or anything, but I imagine that somebody spotted those two unassuming patches of greenery and thought ''right! Now how can I make these INFINITELY more interesting?!''
Oh, cantankerous looking gutter man: I'll never view a gutter the same way again!
Wouldn't it be magnificent to witness these kind of signs around your city?!
Unfortunately, I don't actually think that this is a real road painting (probably a very fortunate fact for the drivers who have to travel across it each day!), but whoa! Im-pres-SIVE!

And psst! Have you taken a peek at Frock & Roll's brand new Copywriting Services page in the last couple of days? Exciting times! Changes AHOY! Projects, projects, projects!

Well now! That post just made my day! That was sooo awesome.. I esp love the gutter, the 'you look lovely' sign (how great would it be to spy that sign when you're feeling quite puny?!), and the painted street. Yay for street art!!

Sadly, the only street "art" in my area is a plethora of crudely spray painted penises, but I love the concept, and these are truly amazing!

Love it! Sadly my city doesn't have anything I'd describe as magnificent, at the moment anyway. I was just in Melbourne though and there's some cool stuff there.

Oh those are lovely!! I specially liked the cheerleader and the road sign.
I haven't seen any nice street art around here. Although there is a nice mural near one of the malls I frequent, I'll try to take a pic of it (with my newly fixed camera!!).
I wish you loads of success with you copywriting services.
