I have been kindly asked by the nice guys here at AM if I would like to submit a weekly street art article from my Instagram feed. Without hesitation I accepted…

For those of you who haven’t heard about Instagram, it’s an app on the iPhone where you can upload and share pictures, so all photos are taken with the iPhone.

This week we have seen Ron English hit the streets with his Thoughtful campaign, coinciding with his exhibition Skin Deep at Lazarides. Also, Meggs, part of the Everfresh Crew from Australia, has been in London for his show Inner Demons at Red Bull Studio and has well and truly left his mark by putting up pasteups and doing some shutter action.

In addition to all that, there is Type’s risky rollers and a new sign of the wing stencil from D*face as well as plenty of priority mail stickers by the New York sticker artist Curly with his provocative messages.
