Street Art on the Streets, Melbourne Style


Melbourne street art

Melbourne, Australia, might be tucked down at the bottom of the world (depending on how you view a map!), but it definitely punches above it’s weight. It’s a hub for great food and coffee, a major destination for street art and artists, and Melbournians are often regarded as some of the friendliest people you will ever meet.  They’re a funny bunch too, it seems, as this series of images clearly shows…
