The start of May saw us here in London get a visit from French stencil artist C215 aka Christian Guemy . The Paris-based street artist was in London for his solo show Spitting Blood (Previously on Hookedblog) at East London gallery Stolen Space.The show is currently on show at the gallery until the 28th of May and saw the artist create a series of multi-layered stencil portrait works based on musical icons from Amy Winehouse to Mick Rock which C215 spray-painted onto vinyl records for the show collection.01 — Portrait of Lemmy from Motorhead by C215, can be located on Buxton Street, London.As with C215's previous London visits over the years, the street artist took to the city streets with his spray paint and stencils installing a series of both one and multicolored stencil works around East London.The highly detailed multi-layered stencil pieces also saw the artist continue the theme from his solo exhibition out into the street and the new London street artworks also featured some of the same musical icons.In total, we managed to locate six stenciled artworks from the artist which feature Amy Winehouse, Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones, Lemmy of Motorhead, French Rapper Booba, Iggy Pop and for all, you cat lovers a street art cat stencil on Sclater Street.We were also fortunate enough to bump into C215, busy at work on Osborn Street putting the finishing touches to his Amy Winehouse portrait piece on a red post box. If you are in the neighborhood be sure to go look for the new stencil works from the artist and if you find any additional work that we have not shared let us know.Below are photographs of the street art portraits we found by C215, along with the locations should you want to see them in person.02 — The completed Amy Winehouse stencil work by C215 on a red London postal box, located on Osborn Street just next to Stolen Space Gallery.03 — C215's Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones can be seen on Osborn Street just next to Stolen Space Gallery.04 — French Rapper Booba makes an appearance on Brick Lane via one of C215's Black and White stencils.05 — Iggy Pop features on a door located on Brick Lane close to the famous Brick Lane Beigel Shop.06 — For all you cat lovers, C215 has sprayed a new cat stencil adding to some of those he already painted on the streets of London from another visit.
