Spray Paint Artist

Posted by admin on March 6th, 2010 and filed under painting artist | 25 Comments »

During a trip to San Francisco I saw this spray paint artist along one of the sidewalks. He uses only spray paint, a putty knife, newspaper, pieces of cardboard, and the lid from a paint can to make all his designs. When they are finished he holds a lighter in front of can of clear spray paint and uses the flames to quick-dry the painting. I bought the one seen at the beginning of the video directly in front of the one he is working on. There was a crowd of people and I only had a cheap digital camera so the quality is not so great.

    Nice try, but I can tell you just made that up. Try like $2.5 million, and 500 grand for the frame. That would be my guess.

    I believe it was $25 + $5 for a cardboard frame. It was a while ago, so I might be slightly off.
