On a recent visit to Adelaide I managed to find a few that were new to me but not necessarily new to the city.

I’m finding now that having been a fan of street art for a few years I’m beginning to recognise the style of some of the incredible artists who paint or spray these grand scale paintings. Here are a few of the my latest finds and where you can see them.
