Where should I be the other day but in Silves, showing my friends from the north east of England this lovely city. Once I’d spotted another alluring electricity box, playfully painted, the hunt was on for some more of these beauties.
If you remember from Street Art in Silves, the colours are vibrant and the subjects very endearing. I might have cheated a little with some of these but they completely reflect the character of the place.
Ian really got into the spirit of things, didn’t he? They’ve gone home again now, but I know they enjoyed themselves. And, boy, did they love cake! Have you added any Street Art to Patti’s collection yet? There’s still time.

Aren’t they clever? We have seen painted utility boxes in Canada and the USA, a shame we don’t do the same here. Perhaps I could paint my own boring white electricity cabinet?
