I love seeing this dude's work...luckily my dad and JS keep me up to date with him.
I dunno, if I was the "town" that he was doing these in I'd wanna put a protective coat over them and keep them for a long mother-arsed time.
Heh can you imagine any of these outside a pub. Poor drunks...heehee.
Apos- I hear what your sayin' about preserving them,but there is something especially appealing in the transient nature of sidewalk art.I've seen beutiful sidewalk works in Germany,that were washed away in the evening rain.Like sunsets and sand castles,the feeling stays with you long after they're gone.
these are so much fun.
once i saw one of his paintings from the opposite perspective - talk about trippy!
I knew a chimney sweep once who did stuff like that. Once, my nanny and I jumped through one of those pictures and had tea served by penguins and rode a carousel and had a supercalifragilistic day but then it rained and everything got frakked up and we had to go back home and my dad, the banker, was there being a blowhard to my mom the sufferegette. It sucked.
B.Brat-I've seen those opposite perspectives.His ability to visualize these things is..is...I don't know what it is..but Damm!
lorraine- okay,..chill out a little.
Take a spoonfull of sugar,and call me in the morning. :)
Hey these are great! Never seen 'em before. Happy Friday (even though it's now Saturday)
aren't they amazing?..
I'm glad you enjoy my emails..I'm sure some people are thinking 'oh shit, here comes another email from jackie'...
A friend sent me some of this stuff recently...it is amazing. I loved one I saw where the people walked around what appeared to be a hole in the cement footpath... : )
Those are fantastic. I especially like that fly!
makes me think everything is an illusion!
maybe i'm not as young and handsome as i picture myself. that could explain a lot things!
His work is always cropping up over here. Yes, one hell of a talented guy although I'd never seen that fly painting before. Awesome.
