The "Meeting of the Styles" street art event (covered in a previous entry here) takes place off Brick Lane each year, and this means that many of the walls on Pedley Street are painted with new work. Street artist Fanakapan painted the high-profile Kinkao wall just off Brick Lane. This time, the artist returned to his colourful balloon-inspired creations instead of chrome/foil. The subject of the work is perfect for the hot weather days we are having; it depicts two semi-transparent water pistols and a water balloon with water droplets.
The mural was started at the weekend but not finished until later last week.
