As I was walking about the city I happened to come across this gentleman drawing smiling faces on the top of the gutter along North Terrace in chalk. I thought to myself this is what street art is all about. This guy bought some thick children’s chalk and was out to brighten some people’s day. It was a simple yet public statement made for all to see.

This got me thinking why don’t we see more of this sort of art?

Are the people of Adelaide too shy?
