Huasteca, evolution of a painting…

 

Recently, my very good friend MAF sent me a picture of the actual state of a piece I painted last year (November 2007) on the road to the Huasteca in Monterrey, Mexico. It’s a good example of how public art is ephemeral and uncontrollable. Actually, it looks awesome now and I’m so happy about that spontaneous change!!!

Here you are the spot, step by step:

We Messed with Texas!!!

 

Just after the “Nomadaz” show in L.A. (pictures very soon!) I went back to Monterrey, Mexico. From there, the Nrmal crew and myself drove to Austin, Texas to assist to the SXSW Festival. Very nice weather, great music, too much food and crazy parties!

Colombia is the last country I visited in South America, I said bye to my friends Above and Ripo (http://southcentraltour.wordpress.com), Aeon and Excusado Crew and went directly to the cool weather of California where I’m setting up a show with my bros from El Equipo Plastico at the Scion Gallery in Los Angeles.

I found a gap of 6 hours between the incessant downpours of south Brazil,
just the time to paint, let it dry and resist the next downpour!!! Ótimo!

To avoid any problems, I painted this piece with the colors of the local football team Club Atletico Boca Junior (the club where Maradona was from)! “Blue and gold” as they use to say, Silva, the neighbor loved it!!!
