Does all the chav women wi sunburnt tattoos count?

gpick24 · 25-08-2013, 21:49

That is a difficult subject, seen some amazing pics in the web, but none i`ve took myself.

Margaret Pilkington · 25-08-2013, 22:05

Well, if you are out an about in Accrington........you could take a pic of the floral arrangements...or the plinth outside the Yorkshire Bank.....the one with the carving on it.
These are all forms of street art...buskers...those men who stand like statues......all of these would count, but as to Cashy's suggestion...I don't think tattoos and sunburn count...sorry!

davemac · 25-08-2013, 22:06

Thats a subject to test the metal.

Margaret Pilkington · 25-08-2013, 22:11

Graffiti counts too...and what about the mosaics in Market way....just use your imagination.
It doesn't have to be in the town centre.......Street Art is where ever you find it....it can be a poster, a hoarding an advertisement.....anything that could be considered 'artistic'(even the fake shop front in Church St could be considered as 'street art')
Let's see what you can come up with. Good luck anyway!

gpick24 · 25-08-2013, 22:24

This is the kind of street art i`ve seen on the net, if all graffiti was like this i don`t think too many would complain .Will try and find something similar on my travels.
