My Dog Sighs is a British street artist who creates stunning murals that gaze upon passersby. The murals show one large eye in great detail, with reflections in the iris that feature an array of captivating motifs.

My Dog Sighs describes his style as “combination of melancholic and often naive portraiture.” His overall artistic journey is characterized by the use of found materials including discarded food tins that he transforms into artworks.

However, his eye murals have captured the attention of street art enthusiasts. They are found across the United Kingdom, including his hometown of Portsmouth, London, Glasgow, and Cardiff, as well as several international locations.

“The power of art is that it just makes people look at the world in a slightly different way,” My Dog Sighs shared in an interview with Big Issue. “As a street artist, what I find really powerful is the idea that it’s not just people looking for art that are seeing it. Every demographic walks down the street and can stumble across a piece of street art.“

If you want to check out more of My Dog Sighs’ stunning murals and don’t plan a visit to the United Kingdom anytime soon, continue scrolling.

Oakoak is a French street artist who creates pieces that interact with urban landscapes in a really clever way, creating amusing scenes for everyone who manages to spot them.

In most cases, Oakoak’s street art is opportunistic and doesn’t involve much prior planning. Most of the time, the artist will spot something inspiring on the street and act in the moment. A wall full of scratches becomes a perfect place to add a playful black cat while a cracked window is a perfect excuse to paint a snow ball-throwing kid.

Oakoak’s street art has found its home in cities across the world, but his hometown of Saint-Étienne remains his favorite playground. It is actually his desire to make Saint-Étienne livelier and prettier that got him into art.  

“I like this city, her atmosphere, and I wanted it to look nicer, “Oakoak explained in a recent chat with Outsiders. “It was an industrial city with many coal mines; now it’s in regeneration and still quite poor. But it’s easily travelled by foot with awkward aspects ideal for art. I saw shapes everywhere, and wanted to realize them.”

Oakoak’s pieces have become quite popular and have given the artist opportunities to exhibit in reputable art galleries. However, he still continues to share his street art interventions on social media for the whole world to enjoy them.

In most cases, urban landscapes are not particularly pleasing to look at with their gray concrete blocks, battered-up bins, dull manhole covers, and eye-sore-inducing pipes, tubes, and cylinders. However, individuals like Tom Bob show that they can even be turned into something interesting if you are creative enough.

Bob is a New York City street artist who became famous for his whimsical interventions that transform the urban landscapes of his hometown as well as numerous cities in the United States and across the world. He explores the streets of these cities in order to find unique objects that he then turns into quirky creatures, food items, and fashion pieces, among others.

Using spray paint and stencils, Bob transforms a manhole cover into a delicious pizza, the AC condenser unit becomes a robot, while gas installations take the shape of a jolly elephant.

With his interventions, Bob notdoesn’t only wants to instill some life into the city streets but also give locals an opportunity to see the beauty of street art. 

“Street art is the most democratic art form in the world. You don’t need to go into a museum to see it. It’s for everyone,” Bob explained in an interview with ABC.

Until Bob comes to your city, you can check out some of his previous whimsical interventions from other cities below.
