One of the joys of looking for and photographing street art is that every trip turns up surprises. These might take the form of a new artist or an entire wall decorated during a paint jam or sometimes with a jaw-droppingly great piece. This beauty from Smak falls into the latter category.

Over the years, Smak has managed to stretch out his SMAK letters with elaborate details and beautifully worked designs. The patterns, shapes and colours disguise the letters so well that they can be difficult to make out at times. This is a classy and confident piece by one of the best graffiti writers around.
