Dan Kitchener - Sclater Street / Brick Lane , by Dan Kitchener on Aug 4, 2012 20:18:32 GMT 1, So i painted this huge 60ft wide by about 9ft high tube tunnel at Sclater Street car park! Underneath the great Bolt portrait by Jimmy C. Crazy day's painting, met some great people, lots of tourists for the olympics, and was interviewed by some Chinese students who must have memorised my replies to their questions as they wrote nothing down!
Anyway, 9 hours straight painting without a break, bit of a killer for me, used over 9 cans of black Montana 94 on this as well, all freehand spray paint of course!
Pleased with the overall scale and feel, although huge amount of tweaking and touching up needed to keep me happy! But a great day none the less, I was surprised by the massive amount of street art tours today must have had 6 or seven large groups walking by and watching!

Dan Kitchener - Sclater Street / Brick Lane , by Dan Kitchener on Aug 4, 2012 20:28:28 GMT 1, thanks, yes i am rushing around all over the place to try and get the scale and proportions! With pieces like this I much prefer to use my own eye, don't use masking tape, projections, or anything else, it's much more organic and natural, spontaneous i think! The scale on this was about the same as The Village undergo urn piece i did, although this was much more detailed!
