Did anyone get any of these?

someone must have found them because when i walked the same route home at the end of the night they were all gone..
don't know if they were forum members though.

[schlomo]

I'll happily drop them for you onto my wall man.......

[Pistol]

Shame I missed them I was painting in London on Saturday!Typical!

[justaspray]

Hi eye-saw if you want any dropping in amsterdam..im your man...

[Dan Kitchener]

mate you could have done the drop yesterday in Brighton!!!!!!!!

[Mish Mash]

Nice work & well done on the drop fella.
I'd guess by requests for drops closer to them that others are loving your work at the mo too

[EYESAW]

Received this message on my flicker page yesterday regarding the Alice street drop..dont know if its a wind up or from the new owner



Hi Dad >^-^< ,

Just to say hello and that I am fine: on saturday (21/02) I was in the underground, visited the Tate Modern by night and had a cup of tee on the 7th floor and on sunday, I ate in the Sunday Up Market some japanese food ...
I was in a plane on monday morning and now, I am visiting France...

Bye Dad !! Don't worry about me and take care.
Alice and Mr Cat



MY RESPONSE......

Dear Alice,

Hope you're okay and not home sick was not expecting you to travel so far, hope you are being looked after and enjoying your new home sorry i had to abandon you on the street like that but as you get older
you will understand why i had to do what i did....
Maybe we will meet again

All my love

Daddy x x x

the cardboard edition looks better IMO i think it's the darker background that makes it

[EYESAW]

Yes i agree with you topboy the canvas was done first, the card one was done as a last minute thing but i was really happy with the result as the card gives it almost a leather hide look the color of the card complements the piece..

may revisit this piece in the future..

[EYESAW]

Just thought i'd share a picture of this with the forum.
It's gonna be up for sale at L.A.B BAZZART

[Dan Kitchener]

amazing mate, loving your new stuff! Good seeing you yesterday too, Bazaart is going to be superb!

[EYESAW]

In the 1970s/80s a young American photojournalist named Martha Cooper set about documenting a new scene in urban street culture that was sweeping through the streets of New York.
We now know this culture as Hip Hop.
She caught first hand with her camera the four elements of Hip Hop..
B-boying, Rapping, DJing and Graffiti writing..
In 1984 her photos were published in the book subway art bringing graffiti to the world..

Martha now living in Baltimore is
still taking photo of everyday life on the streets.

Without her amazing pictures we may not of had a explosion of world wide graffiti or a street art movment..

RESPECT.

This canvas is based on a famous photo by Martha Cooper where she captured the youth of the 70s/80s, This is my interpretation of how The photo might look now 25 years on with the rise of teenage pregnacy and lost childhood..







More colour ways of this coming soon..
And i'm gonna have a little give away of this image on paper as soon as i can think of the best way to go about it.

Thanks

EYESAW

Yes she is truly a force to be reckoned with when it comes to taking photos, and to have captured the whole NYC graff seen from the beginning and to see it evolve around the world to what it is now and know you played a big part in it must be quite a good feeling..

[PRO]

You got some good work dude cant wait to meet you at bazzart and see that granny in the flesh. like your new one to good story

[EYESAW]

Some new bits.


Trying new techniques on card one layer stencils hand finished with pen and paint.

[schlomo]

Love that top one mate, really cool image.....

[My Name is Frank]

The three bits on cardboard are very nice mate, good work

[retroboy]

Nice stuff eyesaw,

Agree with Leftery, the cardboard pieces are very nice, especially the car and "I saw" one below it. I must say, your stuff has come on in leaps and bounds in the last few months. Good work, keep it up.

[LEVI C]

fu*k love that isaw one. got really drawn in by it, great perspective, the walls of the building look like they're made of cardboard too, if you know what i mean others are really well executed too

good stuff

[Dan Kitchener]

stunning work mate, really stunning!
