Batman delivers.  Unfortunately, the image below is cut off but the words say, “Oh Clark, the Christmas street art is amazing!”

And Christmas street art it is, a whole double door in Hosier Lane covered with Christmas themed graffiti, stickers, and paste-ups – part of the Melbourne Street Art Collective meet-up on 15th December 2024.

“Have a crackin’ good Christmas” nutcracker by Lisa D. as well as a Christmas tree full of guitars.  The “pin-up women” Christmas images are the work of Srta~Dolores.  In the bottom right corner is a painting of a woman done on a drinks list menu; Moscow Mules, Bellinis, Brambles, and Dark and Stormys for $9 each.  It is the work of Jimzina

Minnie Mouse and a grandmotherly Mrs. Claus make an appearance along with another Lisa D. illustration, this time candy canes.

below:  The bottom of the image is cut off, and a blob of blue spray paint gets in the way, I’m afraid, but there is a pink and white cowboy boot filled with Christmas goodies by Alice Mole.  Also here,  SAH – Street Art Hunters, ‘playing cards’ with Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer….

below: I think that it’s Marilyn Munroe surrounded by shiny Christmas baubles.

Santa gnomes with text: “Damn we’d like a kiss from a beauty like you. Come on mistletoe, work your magic” and top right: “With looks that hot, you’re melting any chance of a White Christmas”. These were brought to you by the Complimentary Nuts

below: Santa and Mrs. Claus baking in the kitchen together – maybe they’re making gingerbread men!
