Shore Life

Here is a survey of some street art in Donaghadee, Co Down (along with Donaghadee Harbour).

The owls, puffins, and bee painted on the electrical boxes on the Parade are by Sharon Regan (ig) who also did a series of windows in Bangor.

Grace Neill’s (web) which claims to be the oldest licensed bar in Ireland, dating back to 1611.

“S McC” and the artist(s) of the other pieces in High Street are unknown, as is the artist of the octopus on the front of The Captain’s Table (Fb).

Greens And Yellows

These painted dandelions can be found outside the Cedar Tree florist in Ballyclare but their real counterparts can presumably not be found inside: According to Biodiversity Ireland (pdf), the dandelion is found almost everywhere on the island and is a species of “least concern”.

By Imogen Donegan (ig) in Main Street, Ballyclare.
