#005 - School Kids Painting Beauty into our Town 🎨 And street artist painting magic on the walls of Brantford

Imagine a city where everybody could draw whatever they liked. Where every street was awash with a million colors and little phrases...

Recently some students and members from the local school began a wonderful painting project on the TH & B crossing bridge in Brantford - what they created was truly beautiful. It reminded me so much of this quote.

This is a yearly event it seems put on by the City of Brantford, where participates enter to participate.

I don’t know about you, but I love coming across art murals and cool graffiti when I visit somewhere new. Maybe because when I lived in Europe around every corner young people or top artists have painted the walls with some cool street art that is so inspiring, that causes you to say wow and snap a photo or two.  🎨 

And on the streets of beautiful Brantford, I often come across such amazing art, and I want to capture it, to remember.

Like this beautiful drawing on a picnic lunch table in the park - so beautifully drawn, and so unexpected - such incredible talent.

Would love to know who the artist is of this amazing drawing on a park table - WOW

Or like these two beautiful sidewalk chalk drawings drawn by little children expressing their inner child, their inner joys and passions.

Just look at the creativity of this street artist. Incredible. The drawing is so realistic, so alive. I was blown away.

Now this is a talented street artist - impressive - Brantford has so much talent

Or, like these graffiti drawings on the side of a building in alley ways, bridges and byways of the city. To me these are true artist - such talent, worthy of our praise.

"Imagine a city where everybody could draw whatever they liked. Where every street was awash with a million colors and little phrases. Where standing at a bus stop was never boring. A city that felt like a party where everyone was invited, not just the estate agents and barons of big business. Imagine a city like that and stop leaning against the wall - it's wet."

-Banksy
