Thanks! It's one of my favorite things about this city, such a destination for artists. There's always something new going up and it adds so much character. I love driving around to see all of them, get to see a lot of the city, meet new people, meet the artists, etc. it's really great.
DTLA, Culver, and Venice are my favorite mural haunts. Where do you find your treasures?
Just wandering around wherever I have to go that day I come across a lot of them. I also read blogs, check up on instagram accounts, etc. that cover stuff and if I see something that catches my eye I'll swing by and check it out. Such a big city with stuff everywhere I couldn't possibly find them all without any help. A lot of people aren't really forthcoming with info though (I guess out of fear I'd deface the work or something?) so I have to do a lot of scouting/research/begging for some of them. Still have a few on my list without locations that are eluding me but I'll get them eventually.

The Invader in Perth. Got some close up shots of it the other night as someone put a crappy new addition to it. The kid underneath is not a stencil, just a really big sticker.

Very cool work in progress happening in Perth Western Australia at the moment. Not sure of the artist but will post a picture when it's done.

Stormie Mills! http://stormiemills.com/

There was some scaffolding in one of the shops down in Freo which had a Stormie Mills piece on it which would have looked good in a home. Don't know what happened to it.

Do you know where that is? Wouldn't mind ducking along to see it.

I am a photographer. Occasionally, some street art shows up in my work.

It's Murray Street just after King Street, located in the Wilson open air car park. You've got a few there and lots just 5 minutes away in Wolf Lane behind the Apple Store.

Cheers. I think there's one in West Perth which I keep meaning to check out. Might not be a Stormie though. Nice to see Perth getting some street art. Feels so bland without it.

Wonder how many are left?

This is where I got my first exposure to Invader. Was wondering who was putting these up in Northbridge.

I tell you what, I'll make an effort to go round boring old Perth city and see how many still exist.
