Walking through Birmingham city centre I saw a smallish crowd gathered round a man attentatively watching as he made a picture likeness of a woman sat in a chair opposite him. Being the naturally inquisitive (reads nosey) person I am, I moseyed over to see what was going on. Elbowing my way through the onlookers, dodging fags and a couple of fake Michael Kors hand bags, I eventually managed to get a glimpse of what everyone else was seeing. This could be the first time I'd seen so many people gathered round watching someone drawing someone else. It seems as though there's some kind of cultural awakening happening in the Midlands. Every where I go i see stunning street art, body art or some amazing busker sharing their vocal or instrumental stylings with any one who happened to be passing by. I love Birmingham, things are definitely looking bright for the city so many people call the second.
