Street Art Near Brick Lane

�I enjoy seeing the street art around Brick Lane whenever I visit. Every time I visit Brick Lane and Shoreditch, there is always something new to see. In fact, in one of the photographs of the street art below  of the shop door (the black and white one), I watched the artist painting the image on a trip to Brick Lane during my lunch hour when I worked in London. 

I am actually not sure which street artists were responsible for some of the artwork below to credit them. Let me know if you are aware of the artist so that I can credit their work.

1. 'Carrots with fangs' street art is located near Brick Lane - Nemo. 2. A shop door painting on Brick Lane. 3. A large-scale abstract image. 4. A man that resembles Hitler by Jade 11.
Just a side-note here, but the carrots with fangs remind me of one of my favourite book series as a child, Bunnicula (by James Howe). The Celery Stalks at Midnight was one of the books in the series, and the vampire carrots and other vegetables made me think of these books.
Moving on...

Various collages from the same alleyway and inner courtyard off of Brick Lane. I particularly liked the girl with the tattoos sitting on her own in a 'shadow' beneath the more colourful pieces.
