A blog dedicated to street and graffiti art from around the globe. Sometimes graffiti/street art can be thought provoking and beautiful, and it possesses the amazing quality of flooding our minds with memories of places we’ve visited - its appearance, taste, smell and the weather, for example. Many of the photos are mine or I’ve received permission to post them. However, some photographers are unknown, so if you see your work here, I will happily credit you or remove it. Submissions are very welcome!Tumblr (3.0; @colorfulstreetart)http://colorfulstreetart.tumblr.com/<img
