Had a great little find when out in Carnaby street and, amongst the many handouts, I stumbled upon one from Lacoste L!VE and VNA Magazine (Very Nearly Almost) all about street art! Check out my faves Eelus(above) and Inkie(below).

Saatchi Funtimes
I love the Saatchi Gallery!! Had a cheeky little trip there over the weekend for some much needed art therapy!
In the current exhibition NEWSPEAK: BRITISH ART NOW PART II the piece that stuck out was the wondrous world crafted by Tessa Farmer in her piece Swarm. We are welcomed into a world of dark, scary fairies at war with the insects. These tiny skeletal sculptures are so detailed its hard not to imagine them real! Who needs Tinkerbell eh!!
Richard Wilson's 20:50 (above) has been a stable Saatchi piece as the gallery has moved from location to location. A stunning piece where the viewer is invited to walk into the heart of room only to find yourself literally surrounded by the reflective plane of oil. The piece takes on a completely different feel in each of the spaces it finds itself in but retains its beauty and a strange calmness in all, the current is not my favourite space to see it but still stunning and worth a visit! (I ve just been spoilt by seeing the others I think!)
