“Com-Templ.-Arte” festival, Tomar, Portugal.

Last week I visited the city of Tomar in Portugal and painted a mural for "Com-Templ.-Arte" festival.

I'm not that happy with the work because I had the sun on the wall the whole day, and also not enough days to define some details ( hands, faces, cones). 

I like the composition, repetition of the number 3, and the light, but maybe if the execution were a bit different, it would work better. 

The whole work was a kind of improvisation in a way.

I wanted to try a few things, and I certainly plan to revisit the idea, maybe try out only with brushes.

"THERE ARE NO LIMITS"

It's been some time since I've shown some studio work.

This month during the "No Limit"festival in Boras, Sweden, there was a group show curated by Think Space Gallery as part of the festival. 

my two paintings:

"DIONYSUS"

I spend a week with my brother in Bol on island of Brač. While my BROTHER was filming the whole Graffiti Na Gradele  event, I was painting one of the walls for the same festival. 

This time I painted a portrait of my graffiti friend Casino, portraying him as Dionysus, a god of wine, fertility, ritual madness and theater. In my version, he is a god of hedonism and street art :)

"Mockingbirds"

I was invited to Grenoble (Grenoble Street Art Fest) in France to paint a new big mural.

Thnx to lovely people for making it happen  and to Dominik Vuković for being a model.

"Unnatural Habitat" 2.0

So it's been 5 years since I first painted over this abandoned old boat titled "Unnatural Habitat".
I came back to it because it was kind of washed of and I wanted to do something different/ new but again same as the first time....and make another GIF :)
