This Saturday was the annual Sharrow Festival which once again took place in glorious sunshine. There was a variety of entertainment and stalls as usual, including two stages, for bands and musicians, the Sheffield Samba band, DJ and drumming workshops.

One of the highlights for me was the graffitti artists who redecorated the play ground in bright colours. This provided an insight into what was usually a hidden world. Cool tunes were played in relaxed atmosphere while artists worked away on the playground walls and adjacent buildings.

The work is still there well worth taking a look...

Fantastic pictures, they speak for themselves, but paragraphs are also useful.
Just read what graffiti artists are saying, for anyone to realize, a cry, isn't it, for example for free entrance (first picture, demanding ticket) to those expensive palaces of pleasure or whatever where people are asked huge sums to submit their time, I mean to "spend" their time/life, literally parasiting on young blood and flesh.

therefore ... great article. Thank you.
