Acting on a hunch, your intrepid wall sniffing scouts found a small group of shady individuals, one a genuis street artist, one a photographer and a couple of scaffolding monkeys setting up for a bit of street decoration. Judith Supine, for twas indeed the man himself, confirmed this was a kind of maybe, maybe not legit commissioned piece. The night was freezing cold, so after a few work in progress pics we headed off for some mulled wine and warm women. . . .
Beautiful sunshine this morning showed the resulting series of paste ups in all their glory. If they aren't legit, they are certainly handily out of easy reach of the council buffers. Perhaps we should have asked what the piece was about, so in ignorance of what was in his mind, we have christened it "Fear And Loathsome In Shoreditch"

The foto half of graffoto
The Woofter Collective Go Large Soon!!!
Well, there may be a change in the name (second collective member not happy at being a Woofter)
BUT Graffoto becomes two very very soon (In time for a Valentines day special for all you followers of the hot new happenings in Woofter World)
Something we do feel worth a mention right now is The Krah
Now a Shoreditch/Brick Lane regular, The Krah has blitzed the streets of London with ultra detailed robotic organic beings. Recently he was out with his Hellenic buddy "b." who peppers Athens' Walls with..Well, bees!
Exciting news is release of his first limited edition silkscreen print, or metaxotipia as you’d call it if any of you buffoons knew the first thing about Greek street culture. 70cm x 50cm, 2 colour hand pulled on 300gsm archival paper by Little Art Book, edition of 75 all for the bargain price of 50 squid plus postman pat’s pocket money.
The print is available through www.littleartbook.com

Graffoto has gone global! Now covering North to Sarf, East to even further East, and only daring to tread foot in the dreaded West when wishing to rid ourselves of the ills of the uncouth and greatly unwashed inhabitants of Shoreditch. . . . . .
Another member has been added to the graffoto team (which was one person before, so not a team at all) and will help to ensure that the new and improved blog news is wider spreading (in both legs and square miles covered)
Joining HowAboutNo will be his currently un named secret squirrel cohort, enabling there to be more info on print releases, upcoming shows and hopefully some interesting tip offs and news of anything worth a mention.Something we do feel worth a mention right now is The Krah

New Things On The Horizon
Am back after what seems an eternity of not blogging, I went to the darkside, and thankfully made it out alive with my balls intact.
Now is not the time to bore you with the whos, where's and why's (all one and a half of you still clutching on in despair for my return.......)
Now is the time to say Happy 50th Birthday to Lego ! ! !
Normal Service shall be resumed shortly (read : when I can be arsed and I also don't have this nasty bout of man flu). . . . when I may or may not reveal my secret evil twin, the fact that I just ate a frozen Findus chicken fajita, the colour of the fluff in my belly button, oh...and maybe some news about whats been happening on the smelly streets of London in the 5 months I have been away
Also some plans for graffoto in the lovely year that is 2000 & GREAT!
Yay!

Sickboy. . .
Still not entirely sure what the Temple resembles (I'm off to read his new website www.thesickboy.com where I may or may not find out)
However and whatever, as per usual, I care not for explanation, reason, cause or anything like it.
It just looks the chuffin nuts :o) The Colab with Sweet Toof and Cyclops recently are hopefully the first of many. Lots of lush stuff to come from them all if they do or not either way. Long may it continue...every damn where!
