Storm worries

 

Quite un-August-like

high winds and heavy rainfall;

my daughter camping.

Ground rush II

Last minute packing

checking items off the lists

poor preparation.

No sooner is the boy back

than the girl departs for camp.

365. Upper York Street (3)

More great art from one of the very best local Bristol street artists. (This is a difficult judgement to make, because there are so many of them that are just incredible). Sled One has created a wild and wonderful mural with curious giraffe-like creatures as its centrepiece.

I would say that the colours and overall style are certainly in the 3Dom school of street art, and far removed from the extraordinarily brilliant wildstyle burners that are Sled One’s trademark. I love Sled One’s work, and I would guess that he freestyled this, as he generally seems to freestyle everything.

I am always in awe of his work. The details and stories are great. In this picture the giraffe on the right appears to be peeing on the tent of the giraffe on the left – not sure what the background to this might be, but there is definitely a story there somewhere.

Camp

 

House is strewn with clothes

and kit that will never fit

into the backpack.

They’ll always give you something to worry about

 

With perfect timing,

youngest leaves for Easter camp

as ‘Katie’ storms in.
