Two young men decorate the underpass on the Line in Blackrock this evening with spray paint. There are fabulous murals on both walls of the underpass!
Fun fact: spray paint, the tool of choice here, was invented in 1949 by Edward Seymour, on the suggestion of his wife, Bonnie.

The city of Lisbon is infamous for its hills, and the Escadinhas Damasceno Monteiro is a fine example. It is down the street from where we were staying. It’s got lots of steps. So many steps.

This wall on Hibernian Road in Cork has always been covered in graffiti but if you look at it in Google Street View and go back through the years it has been cleaned several times by Cork Corporation. You can go all the way back to 2009 and see the state of the wall back then. The newest Street View is from July 2022, and you can see BOZO immortalised there.
This is only the latest iteration.

Graffiti on the Crawford Art Gallery about a year ago.
There’s something weird going on with my feed here. I messed up the Feedburner redirect for a few days but fixed it and now posts from Holy Shmoly are appearing here too! I’ve disabled the redirect entirely now. Maybe that’ll fix it and my next post on HS won’t appear here.
