If you have made it this far, you probably like doors and you really ought to take a look at the Norm 2.0 blog – the originator of Thursday Doors where there are links to yet more doors in the comments section at the end.
There is no end to my busy period, I rarely seem to have time to come up for air. I am writig this when I should be tucked up in bed. To make things easier for me until I get a bit of a break I have once again plundered my archives for some more street art/graffiti doors, first published in 2018. Enjoy…

Doors 112 – Back to some archive street/graffiti art doors
Another extraordinarily busy week for me, and limited time to pull together new doors, so it is another retrospective of street art doors (one or two of which have been seen before on Thursday doors) this week. Here goes, this selection were first published on Natural Adventures in 2017:
Skor85, Moon Street, Bristol, January 2017
N4T4, North Street, Bristol, September 2015
Banksy, Bristol Museum, Bristol, May 2014
This world famous Banksy piece called ‘mobile lovers’ was in the Bristol Museum for a short while before being returned to the Broad Plain Boys’ Club on whose door it had been painted. They sold the door to a private collector for £403,000 which alleviated the financial problems they were having. It was what Banksy had intended.
Thursday door. North Street, Bedminster, Bristol
Drew Copus, Stokes Croft, Bristol, May 2016
Door, Freeman Alley, New York
My Dog Sighs and Snub23, Upfest, Bristol, July 2017
There is a door hidden in the middle of this piece.
Alex Lucas, North Street, Bristol, October 2017
Irony, Camden Town, London, November 2017
Nomad Clan, Upfest, Bristol, July 2017
Ian Phenna, Upfest, Bristol, July 2017
Another rush through a slightly more international selection there which I hope you enjoyed. Have a great weekend.

Doors 107 – even more archive street/graffiti art doors.
You know the drill. Even though I have been out and about a bit and have photographed quite a few doors lately, I haven’t yet had time to upload them on to my PC – so until such time as I get myself a little bit more organised, you might have top make do with yet another seelection of doors from my street art archive.
I am pleased to note that readers apppear to have enjoyed these galleries when I have posted them, which gives me the courage to continue with them when I need to.
These ones were photographed from September 2015 through to December 2016.
Rob Wass, Raleigh Road, Bristol, September 2015
The pictures above and below are the same wall painted for two different Upfest events.

Alex Lucas, York Road, Bristol, December 2016

So that just about wraps it up for another week, I hope you have enjoyed these doors. I hope I can back to some more contemporary photographs next week, we’ll just have to see how that goes.

Doors 106 – Some more archive street/graffiti art doors
Although I did manage to snap a few doors over the last week, I haven’t yet had time to download them from my camera, so for today’s Thursday doors I am trawling through images I have previously posted on Natural Adventures of street/graffiti art that feature doors. Up-cycling if you like.
Most of these doors have not appeared in Thursday doors before, so unless you read my street art posts as well, most will be new to you. These ones are from 2016 (so expect plenty more to come for future posts).
Stinkfish, Rivington Road, Shoreditch, London, August 2016
PZY, Tropicana, Weston-super-Mare, August 2016
Shok 1, Fournier Street, Shoreditch, September 2016
Decay, Backfields Lane, Bristol, September 2016

Deamze, Devon Road, Bristol, May 2016
Dale Grimshaw, Upfest, Bristol, July 2016

That’s it for another lock down week. Look after yourselves and keep posting those doors.

The last of this sequence of five pieces from a trip to Shoreditch in November 2018 is this magnificent dorway work by Stik (who else). The simplicity of his work tells stories far greater than many more complex pieces and certainly backs up the saying ‘less is more’.
Stik, Shoreditch, London, November 2018
There is something very human about these two stick figures and although the only features they have are eyes, we understand what the piece is saying and for that alone it should be admired. Stik has hit upon a style that taps into our core senses and feelings at the most basic level and elicits emotions in ways that sophisticated pieces sometimes fail to do. I love this.
I’m not entirely certain that this wonderful piece by Zabou is strictly speaking in Shoreditch, but it was certainly on the way on a very long walk I took back in November 2018. It is on Kingsland Road on the wall of the By the Bridge café beside the Regent’s Canal, I think the area is called Haggerston.
Zabou, Shoreditch, London, November 2018
Zabou’s protrait pieces are rarely matched by anyone in both scale and quality, she really is a street artist at the top of her game, and finding her work is always such an exciting thrill. I think the piece was painted in April 2018 and features the model Yara Shahidi. Beautiful.
