After my\u00a0last street art<\/a> walk in London, I felt that it was worth paying another visit to that area\"Street. So I went back to Brick Lane\/ Hoxton and uncovered a few more art pieces. It was an enjoyable afternoon\/ evening. Here are some of the pics that I took.<\/p>\n

It will only take you a few minutes of your time to visit a few hidden and not-so-hidden pockets of\u00a0London. Fancy visiting?\u00a0<\/p>\n

One of the aspects of street art is its dynamism. One day, you can see a dull wall, the next you can see a great graffiti which may even have been specially\u00a0commissioned. This one gives this\u00a0little square a bit more of interest.<\/p>\n

\"Street<\/a><\/p>\n

This is on the trendy Hoxton area. The second set was taken where a bar used to be, a former favourite in the area I think.<\/p>\n

\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a><\/p>\n

Next to the second set above, we see another art piece by Roa<\/a>! Remember the crane, the hedgehog and the squirrel?<\/p>\n

\"Street<\/a><\/p>\n

By a Colombian artist near Hoxton Square:<\/p>\n

Once in Brick\u00a0Lane, some designs keep cropping up:<\/p>\n

\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a><\/p>\n

There are art pieces everywhere:<\/p>\n

\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street\u00a0\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a><\/p>\n

Variety is an aspect of street art:<\/p>\n

\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a>\u00a0\"Street<\/a><\/p>\n

Snobism in the arts is not new:<\/p>\n

\"Street<\/a><\/p>\n

Some sculptures are quite new to me. These are hanging on walls in different places, some of them are more new than others:<\/p>\n

Back to the 80\u00b4s by Graffiti\u00a0Life:<\/p>\n

Now, this is street art too!<\/p>\n
