The Eagle has Landed - UK Graffiti Legend Busk

Old Skool UK Graffiti Legend 'Busk' is mad busy creating a new line of art which is far removed from conventional graffiti methods. Aside from creating some great commissioned works of art for some of London's most swanky venues such as The Ivy or penthouses in St Pancras, Busk is experimenting with nature.

We shot some video of him this time last year...

Old Skool Graffiti Head Busk on Mushrooms

Busk has been in the game close on twenty five years now and has painted an array of surfaces, characters, letters, portraits, abstracts, photo-realism and then some… Busk commands great respect in his chosen field by other writers and artists though lately our boy has been on the mushrooms. Now before anyone goes rushing off to grab some handcuffs and boot the poor lads door down, we are of course speaking of the painted variety.

Busk himself says 'Im painting mushrooms and don't care if no-one likes them, its what i want to paint. Its all about mushrooms right now' We of course expected him to say magic mushrooms, Amanita Muscaria and a bunch of other hallucinogenic  fungi to which he un-interestingly replied 'maybe' . We pushed a little more…what no magic mushrooms, you losing the plot or what. You cant do mushrooms without any magic…can you…Listen said the botanist 'there will be magic but not the kind your hoping for, there's thousands of amazing looking fungi out there'  He showed us some online shots and we too were amazed at the shapes and form of countless fungi. Though as he left the office we shoved our prized Plant of the Gods (Richard Schultes, Albert Hofmann etc) in his bag and live in hope of a big ass muscaria...

LSD Magazine - issue 5 - Coming of Age

As the summertime rush kicks deeper into action and the sun drenched vibes flow hard, LSD is back to celebrate its’ first birthday in a blistering meteor shower of form, colour, image, sublime emotion, bassline thunder and the vivid kaleidoscope of the third eye. Hurling the visions and the understanding trapped in the shadows into the penetrating sunshine of imagination, this mammoth issue takes a wild and totally uninsured ride through some of the finest art, ideas, music, activism and spectacular lunacy channelling through society’s undercurrents and crystallises into well over 500 pages of sparkling goodness.......LET’S AV YA.....

LSD Magazine - Rewind 2009 pt1 - 2010

As 2010 snows into action and conventional wisdom grinds to a halt, let's take this opportunity to replace the usual mediocrity of our resolutions with a joining of forces to actually fight for, build and actively nurture a culture that is truly ours and not just consign ourselves to being the Facebook generation of empty clickers. Download the magazine, get involved, share far and wide, send us your projects - let's collaborate - let's make 2010 legendary. Let art meet music, meet wisdom, meet a packed dancefloor, meet creativity of every creed and colour and let's really take the world by the balls and shape it in our own image. Let's shatter genres, break down false barriers both internal and external and let's all work together to realise each other's positive missions in a more fulfilling, dynamic and unified way... Don't just click 'like' - let's get on it and make it happen. http://www.londonstreetartdesign.com
