Shoreditch street art portraits

These three street art portraits caught my eye because of how bold and colourful they looked bringing the cold concrete walls to life. 

All three were on the same strech of
wall but stand apart from each other showing off different styles.

The first portrait shows a great amount of detail & blends the woman's hair into the speckled background.

The second uses stencils over colourful tones to create the image of a soldier. This creating a crisper cleaner finish.

Lastly the use of contrasting clouds, red on black, tonally makes the image jump out at you. I think this is a typical pop art aproch to creating a portrait.
