Motar Has A Home In North Melbourne

Stencil art is everywhere in Melbourne, often cute and entertaining. I love graffiti, but then I live in a city where it is celebrated and a ridiculous amount of it is highly skilled, a level to which you can stand in awe in front of the piece thinking "Skills, that is mad skills" while cracking a big smile. Street art is growing, it's more than enormous in many parts of the world and it is something to celebrate in my mind. Well I celebrate it in my mind everyday already, I meant in my opinion :) If you are on Facebook, search graffiti and you will have an abundance of pages to like, thereby getting treated daily to art from around the world for the people by the people. But back to Motar here, he is in my neighbourhood, he brings joy to the passersby and I think he might be scratching his back, or fixing a lost connection. Next time you see street art you like, smile and think, someone made this just for me. I follow it up with a hands up in the air THANK-YOU and go on my way inspired for the day.
