1598. Moon Street (49)

Standing cheek to cheek with one of Laic’s acid house skeletons in Moon Street is this little character by an artist that I don’t know but who I am calling BTW until I know any better. I recently posted another of their pieces in The Bearpit that featured this same half-mutilated character.

It is a funny thing, but I didn’t notice the bone when I first photographed these pieces, probably because the upper half of the character has enough going on to distract the eye. There is something about the work of BTW that reminds me of a kind of Charlie Brown meets Southpark thing going. Of course that might only be me. Nice little piece.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1584. The Bearpit (151)

I am taking a bit of a punt here, because I want to start posting pieces by this artist (of which I have many) and guessing that from the signature their name is BTW…of course initials on street art can mean a plethora of things, including a crew name or respected fellow artist or tribute, for example. So for now and until I know better I will refer to the artist as BTW.

This is one of the larger pieces that I have seen from the artist and is consistent with the predominantly monotone style, although there is a dash of pink in this one. The character in the Nike hat is a half person which has been chomped below the waiste and I’m not too sure what the other little characters are, but it is a fun piece. I rather like this cartoon style and look forward to posting a few more pieces by BTW.
