Kid Acne

This painting is on the side of a live poultry shop just round the corner from my building in Brooklyn, the Skeleton character looks VERY much like it was done by Sheffield's own Kid Acne... I'm not sure if it is or not, but the Kid Robot shop here is selling some toys based on his characters - it's a small world sometimes isn't it?

  1. How very strange, to go all that way and see this! The skeleton is on several murals in Sheffield, so its either the Kid or a very flattering imitator. (Pops)

  2. I did a bit of investigating on t'interweb and found out that Kid Acne came to Williamsburg for a while, so it is him! It's so funny. I think there are some other bits and pieces of his around to be found so I'll keep an eye out.
