Street Art: Mother and Child

Found this down a side street just off of Brick Lane. Great piece of work that really suits the area. Anyone know who the artist is?

Little London Laughs: Girl and Mannequin

While on an 11 bus to Liverpool Street on Saturday afternoon, we were stopped in traffic. I looked out the window on King’s Road and smiled at this little girl outside a shop full of bikini-clad mannequins, swinging around like she was at a playground.

Yes I Can!

Outside of The Island pub in Kensal Green last week, a little girl in a twirly blue dress was standing on her brother’s scooter. Her hair was white-blond and she wore glasses with thick, magnifying lenses. When her dad scolded her for being on the scooter, saying she couldn’t do it because she was only 3-years-old and too young, she retorted, “I can! Yes I can! I can do anything!” And off she went.

 

I smiled to myself as I walked past on my way home. With that sort of attitude, she will be able to do anything indeed.
