Knowing this country the police would tell him off about it, if not arrest him for graffiti, and make him wash it off.

Its still graffiti either way you look at it.

thats the artist standing in the painting as a character...does it in nearly all his street stuff.

because thats actually a person (Paul Beezer i presume) in the picture, to get the illusion he's behind parts of the picture he is sitting on his knees.

same goes for all of the other pictures, he is standing in them and interacting with his art.

Absolutely amazing, What a talent to have! :eek:

People who see it would probably just think "wtf?" until they saw it from the right angle.

I wonder if he draws them using his intuition to guide him, or whether he maps out what he needs to draw via a convulted coordinate transform first...

radikal_dj · 12 Apr 2006 at 08:45

This guy has skills.

Zip · 12 Apr 2006 at 08:50

Is that paintings on the street or just photoshoped? :confused:

Kell_ee001 · 12 Apr 2006 at 08:52

SexyBetty · 12 Apr 2006 at 09:06

They're real paintings on the street. The guy has immense talent. I'd love to see his work up close and personal one day, it'd probably be very surreal.

If you look at one of the pictures you can see a tripod with what looks to be a Surveyors Prism on top of it, which is used when marking out spots on the ground with millimeter precision. My guess is he marks out a few key points to allow him to easily show him where hes going with the drawing. The rest id imagine, is pure skill.

Edit:
Could just be a camera though

.............so eh...pure skill :cool:
