LSD Magazine photographer Claude London has been shooting the likes of Andy Warhol since the sixties. He instantly recognised something special was happening on the streets of London and made it his job to document as much street art as possible. So far the man is doing a sterling job and we often see him out snapping the most recent wall creations. He has been documenting artist Stik's work and probably has more shots of this artist than anyone else including LSD Magazine (and we get out alot). We posted some shots here but for the full list be sure to visit Claude's flickr pages... The URL follows the shots...
FOOTNOTE: We at LSD Magazine are often asked why we always feature Stik in every issue. It's really quite simple Stik is one of the few artists that actually contacts us when going out working. So we're happy to follow him along and snap the fresh images for the magazine.

In this issue's (5) interview with street artist Stik we mentioned he comes from a political family background when in fact what Stik actually meant by family is the people, artists, and crews currently in his life...
He recently took the time out to paint a piece on a spot in Broadway Market, a spot which no-one has bothered to paint on or advertise in. Then some of Satan's clever little helpers spotted an advertising opportunity albeit at the behest of a local street artist. This is what Stik said
'This was a permitted piece about gentrification on Hackney Broadway on a hoarding that has been blank for years. Follow the disdainful eye-line and you see the disused shell of the east end cafe lying empty after the famed forced eviction around 5 years ago. Covered up illegally by estate agents sign within hours. To be continued...'
Its funny how the little things can sometimes bring everyone together with but one objective. Street artists are now speaking of collecting and using the companies boards in street art installations. Though many of them are watching for the next MOVE!
Judging from the poor decision to allow the boards to go public when they clearly have difficulty with spelling the word 'PROPETY' we just might be hearing more from this story...
