Whether you choose to call it street art or simply common graffiti, the walls of several Breton towns have been enriched by some wonderful examples of the craft in recent years. In an earlier post, I highlighted some works from the north coast Breton city of Saint-Brieuc and this post features many new murals that now adorn that town as well as a few that were painted over. Additionally, some works spotted in the towns of Morlaix and Brest were just too good not to share here too.
















Whether you regarded these as fine pieces of urban poetry or just bits of colourful vandalism, I hope that you enjoyed seeing these few daubed walls of Brittany – formerly blank canvasses that now carry the gift of a smile for the passer-by or, at the very least, the potential for one. Surely, that is something to be welcomed by us all!
Wonderful art!Thank you very much for sharing.πΉπ

Saint-Brieuc would be my “patron” city. (Since my real name is Brieuc)= Again, it’s been too long since I’ve gone there. ten years, maybe?
Fantastic art. Merci.

I love several of the pieces here – especially the more vibrant and abstract paintings. My favorite one has to be the greyscale image of the woman with the elk. It has a ghostly quality to it, and I want to know the story behind it! The artist also clearly has master-level skils.

That is quite a stunning image isn’t it? I love how the forest catches the eye and is somehow lost at the same time. As you say, a most skilled artist! π
