Tight, fat and bloated,
September’s offering is
October’s desire.

Transition
Delicate whisper
of Autumn’s steady advance;
time to button up.

30. North Street, No.222
With many thanks to a friend who told me about this tiny ‘shock wave’ by JPS, that is missed by most who walk this street. The pictures may give you some idea of scale.
In Weston-super-Mare, where JPS comes from, there is a full scale version of the same work on the side of a shop.
Weston-super-Mare is of course also playing host to Banksy’s Dismaland exhibition.
More JPS here and here, and also take a look at a great JPS post from Street Art Rat.

Longing
I want my childhood
back; to spend carefree Summers
with those who have gone.

Common Blue
On Cornish heather,
still only for a moment;
captured in rapture.

27. Rosemundy, St Agnes
Strictly speaking this is street art, because it is a painting on a street, however it is likely to be a precursor to the rather more edgy stuff we are used to these days.
This small mural was painted by an artist, Tony Giles who lived in St Agnes from 1961 until his death in 1994. Originally from Taunton in Somerset he was known for his landscapes.
I wonder if he lived in the house behind the wall where this mural is.
The figure always reminds me of the cartoon ‘Pearly Kings’ in Mary Poppins.
I like it.

The wind in my face,
dreaming of sandy beaches;
I make for Cornwall.

Synchronicity;
warm, humid weather triggers
