Plenty of info on the artists and event at the website, including previous years' shows. 
The site links you to a bunch of great artists' work from all over.

New 2


"Keef, that was a good run through, but can we do the solo again to sound a little... um... Lady Gaga or something, and maybe the vocals should be done with Auto-Tune."  Keef: "Faaark Orrrf!"
Sorry, had to digress. I did a full outline on paper for once. One of my fonts x the current thread I'm steadily exploring. Just got a bit of paint again, looking forward to a few days in a row free to use some...

Double Dutch


A buddy spotted this in a paper...

Ephameron in Coney Island

Belgian illustrative artist Ephameron features in this vid. Nice to see some spray paint used minus the bombast. Quiet and direct.

New x Two





Two days in a row not knowing what to paint. The first afternoon I did a simple fun thing. My initial photo was taken in poor light, so I went back the next morning, and winged another piece while I was there.
Having 'nothing', so to speak, made me rely on my past (which is a way too common practice for me). I remembered something I wrote next to a piece as a teen, "go about your own thing, fuck competition and being a king". Ok, it's teenish, but 20+ years on it has become a more important notion than ever, as keeping up with the Jones's, fa fa fa fashion in writing and self promotion plays too vital a role. Give me writers with a personal set of images / symbols and their empirical studies that I can follow. Then I have the means to critique without the haze. Anyway...
