Street Art: A lone wolf artist paints both happy and sad

The Big Issue's Street Art page gives talented, marginalised individuals an outlet for creative expression

‘NIGHTBLOOM’

By Anonymous

This anonymous artist, who submits her work via London homeless charity the 240 Project, describes herself as “a lone wolf”. “My work comes straight out my head, it’s happy and sad,” she says. “At the end of the day, how you feel comes out on the paper, in the colours and the shapes. I get inspired by people at the project and value their comments, we are like a family they give you honest advice.”
