SLUG PASTE UPS !!! 2010 TM - Wilson Street Gallery / Newtown (Tue 09 Nov 2010)

SLUG PASTE UPS !!! 2010 TM - Wilson Street Gallery / Newtown (Tue 09 Nov 2010)

SLUG likes to do his work around Inner City Art Galleries (see yesterdays post and here). Found this poster about a month ago walking along Wilson Street, in the opposite direction to which I usually walk. It had been there for quite a while. Lots of detail in this one. Many characters, some of whom I have seen around other parts of Newtown.

Gerald the Dog - Whately Lane / Newtown (Thu 02 Dec 2010)

Gerald the Dog - SLUG - Whateley Lane / Newtown (Thu 02 Dec 2010)

On Wed 01 Dec 2010 I published a post titled ...SUPER SONIC SLUG... where it was observed that SLUG was everywhere.

Had to go to Newtown that evening and in the drizzling rain as I drove down the dark and narrow Whateley Lane between King Street and Wilson Street, I noticed this recent piece by SLUG. Came back early the next morning and the photos below are the result.

The Story of Gerald the Dog starts here back in February 2010. I was aware of the character, but I did not know his name, Gerald, until I saw this Oct 2010 post by the Acid Midget.

Earlier in the year I had noticed quite a big piece (of Gerald) on a large roller door in Buckland Lane, Newtown. I even photographed it with my new mobile phone and it has been my phone's wallpaper ever since. He was a different dog back then. He had yellow skin and was well behaved.

To read in October 2010, the Acid Midget's posts on Gerald was quite funny and put a smile on my face, though I was sorry for the poor pooch's demise. I have always liked dogs and have always tried to be nice towards them and will always say Hello for some reason.

Since mid-October, Gerald has been popping up all over Newtown and Enmore and I have taken quite a few photos of poor old Gerald's demise. As the Acid Midget has observed, Gerald has been seriously lead astray in Newtown and his life has gone to the dogs.

Will publish some more photos over the next week or so. Stay tuned ..

Green Bone Head - Wilson Street / Newtown (Thu 02 Dec 2010)

Seen a few of these little creatures around the place. Always painted on a sheet of cardboard from a box and then glued to the wall. Not sure what to really call them, but Bone Head seems OK.
