Greetings, friends! Today I want to show a selection of May street art, as well as one March street message as a bonus. We have a cold but sunny May, and I'm trying to walk more. And, as always, I pay special attention to street art. Sometimes I manage to find new works - new to me, anyway. Other days I go to see the works I've seen before - how are they, are they still there? The life of street art is sometimes very short.
Green mushroom is one of the new works. I found this mushroom in a large courtyard near Staro-Nevsky Prospekt. It was a short walk that day, the icy wind forced me to start looking for a warm shelter quite soon. But nevertheless I walked the whole yard from end to end, turning into all the nooks and crannies, hoping that the unknown artist had not limited himself to one work. But no, I found nothing else.
The next work is one of the long-lived ones. I turned to this large courtyard on Petrogradsky Island on purpose, I remembered that a few years ago I had seen something remarkable here. The ventilation shaft in this courtyard is still adorned with two drawings, and they seem to look exactly the same as they did on the day I first saw them.
From this courtyard it is possible to pass through the archway of the backstreet into the next one, which also has an art object. But the poems on the walls of the service annex have not been preserved very well. Some of the words have disappeared entirely, others are missing some letters.
The hockey player near Suvorovsky Prospekt... well, that was unexpected. I even thought that the season was not suitable for this work, we should come back in winter. But then I decided that it's dangerous to wait for winter - perhaps the local public utilities will decide that fresh even paint on this wall will look better than a drawing.
The next work differs from all the previous ones in that it has the artist's signature: Lu Blue. You may remember in February I posted several blue coloured works by the same artist. The blue colour contrasted against the snow. This work is located in one of the courtyards of Moskovsky Prospekt. Not far from this place I met a parked van - as a continuation of the theme of robots, androids, artificial intelligence and the like.
I want to finish the selection with two street messages that I photographed a bit earlier, in the last picture even the snow has not had time to melt yet. The inscription on the wall of the house states that everything around is vanity, and the wall of the transformer box asks the question: ‘Maybe it's a dream?’.

This is my entry for the CCC’s Street Art Contest #195 organized by @digi-me.
Beautiful selection of StreetArt especially the one done on the truck. Here in Montreal, it's getting warmer and I'm taking the opportunity to discover "new works". Thanks for sharing these pics on The StreetArt Community.
Have a great weekend
