Today's theme for our Tea Tuesday is 'Urban Art' chosen by Christen, why not pop along and pay her a visit you can find her over H E R E
Urban Art, the sky's the limit out there sooo much to choose from... I first came across UA in American films and American TV when I was younger think it was called graffiti by the like of the police.
The next time I saw it IRL was in London but it was frowned upon way back then...no longer frowned upon it's accepted for what it is.... ART.
I didn't go for Graffiti but instead I found you some Urban canvas art...ART with Urban ATTITUDE ;)

we thought it was funny until we were caught by the local policeman and in those days we were scared of him.... I never did it again.... that was my only naughty encounter with the police.
The other memories I have was every Sunday going into the phone box at the corner of our street, insert an old sixpence and dial a disc then listen to a different record playing every week.... and beleive me a sixpence was a lot of money way back then, I only earned £3 10 shillings and 6pence for a week at work.
