Street Art: My Dog Sighs

WORDS Lindi Brownell Meiring IMAGES My Dog Sighs on Facebook  / BoredPanda

British street artist My Dog Sighs creates bold, colourful works of art, from giant murals to detailed pieces using cans as canvas.

After finding his passion for creating art at an early age, My Dog Sighs decided to follow an art career professionally. Not having any success with galleries, it was only when he discovered a stencilled rat by renowned street artist Banksy on a wall in London that he was inspired to try something new.

He began simply leaving his works of art on the street for people to find, including beautiful painted pieces on old cans (seven of which you can see in the gallery above). In fact, he gave his work away for free for 10 years.

Since then, he’s garnered over 50 000 followers on Instagram and his works can be found in galleries and art fairs across the globe.
