Street-art by Alice

I’ve seen more work by Alice Pasquini but I can’t remember where and it’s bugging me. Let me know if you know.

I have a massive backlog of street-art to blog about so it’s going to become a regular feature. I’ve made a promise to myself to keep on top of it from now on, as it can disappear pretty quickly!

      I’ve seen it on lampposts, railings and trees, it’s lovely and brightens up the city (although I think trees are lovely anyway) but it needs to be taken down after a month or so, before it gets all manky.
