Judge Robin #hoodwinked2018 #CreativeMondaysLinkUp. Hello friends, so how are you today?

Happy Monday lovelies. So I hope you have all had a lovely weekend?

I am so pleased you have hopped on by to join us for this week’s Creative Mondays Blog Hop to share your creativity will us all.

A sunny afternoon in Nottingham, I wandered into Nottingham and came face to face with Judge Robin a breathtaking mosaic from the Hoodwinked 2018 art trail.

On Saturday my Husband and I had a rare afternoon out on our own Nottingham. A few drinks and lots of food was lovely.

Also, we took photos of some more of the Hoodwinked2018 trails in Nottingham too, this is No.2. The Judge Robin.

So A Judge Robin #hoodwinked2018 #CreativeMondaysLinkUp.

This Judge Robin, is also on Station Street, Nottingham.

How cool is Judge Robins!? I love the attention to detail.

Its bold tones and intricate feather-like details stopped me in my tracks. If you love street art, creative public murals, or discovering hidden gems around town, this one is a must-see.

My Husband said get in closer.

Could we be any closer now Judge Robin?

Walking through Station Street in Nottingham, I stumbled upon Judge Robin, a striking sculpture that was part of the Hoodwinked 2018 art trail.

Its bold design and vibrant colours instantly caught my eye, so I stopped to take a closer look (and plenty of photos to share with you!).

If you enjoy discovering hidden art around the city, or love a good photo walk, this piece is one you’ll want to know about.

So What Is Hoodwinked 2018?

What Is Hoodwinked 2018? Updated Info!

Back in 2018, Nottingham hosted Hoodwinked, a fun public art trail featuring dozens of uniquely decorated robins scattered across the city.

Each piece had its own theme and design, created by different artists, and could be found in unexpected places.

The trail brought colour and creativity to the streets — and made for the perfect afternoon adventure for locals and visitors alike.

I found Judge Robin right on Station Street, near Nottingham train station.

With its rich colours, fine detailing, and proud stance, it’s hard to miss once you know where to look.

The sculptor really stands out against the brick backdrop, it almost feels like the robin is keeping watch over the city.

I loved the craftsmanship of this piece.

Up close, you can really see the care that went into the design. It’s such a brilliant example of how public art can brighten up everyday spaces.

    These are fun photos! I love seeing art work like these well because 1) they are different and 2) they are that extra character to your photos! Your dresses are all very pretty. Love the vibrant colors of both the pink and blue. We had a good weekend too! My parents were in town so I got free time to hang out with the hubby and also work on other things. I accomplished so much – it was great!! Now it’s back to Mama! Wait a few seconds…Mama! Repeat until day is over! Ha! Happy Monday!

    I love these kind of public art projects, the Robins for Nottingham are brilliant.
    I remember finding Gromits all over London one year when we were visiting, they were so much fun to come across, and of course have a selfie with!
