looking good mate, what is the touch up needed? good work G

Edit, just had a look at your flickr.

[Grafter]

thanks for all the positiveness guys....
Feels good getting back to basic street level...it's definatley the way forward and they'll be a lot more showing up shortly.

I'm out and about at the moment so can't post any pictures but if you take a look at either my Flickr account or at the entries for GDM you'll be able to see a completed version.

I must be the only one here that cant understand the picture.. Why does he/she only have one arm? And whats he/she doing with her hand?

Its like one of those old granny/ beautiful woman pictures... i just cant figure it out!

[Grafter]

[Dellboyy]

Here it is:



Personally i think i like it without the strong blue! Both look good though!

[Grafter]

thanks for doing that Delboy.

Happy to hear and take on all comments BTW, both +&-.....
it's always better than being ignored.

[denzil]

looks good ,but eyes are drawn to were is the arm?

[schlomo]

the arm is clearly visible to me, shows how different people view stuff i guess.

As above G, good to see your stuff out on the streets again.

Agree! Its just an image, nothing more than that really

[bazzj04]

[bazzj04]

[gozgoz]

I tell you whats a magic eye picture. Its your darn avatar Bazz!

Dear Silky, please ban Bazz as his Avatar scares me.

Ok. Nope. I dont see any arm. Is it meant to be armless? It looks like a Sudanese child warrior thats lost an arm. Is it? Grafter im seriously not taking the peas here. Its not a bad image i dont hate it like how i hate some of MBW's prints. Im just curious.

Whats it doing with his/her hands?

Is it a he or she?

What is the meaning of life?

Why cant I stop looking at Bazz's avatar.

[Grafter]

Mate, you're cracking me up...
I don't know what to say to you. I clearly see both arms but then I know the image better than most. Try looking realy hard, but you might have more fun not seeing it and coming up with all sorts of other things.

Didn't mean to cause you so much grief, bit I suppose it gives us all something to do, don't it.

[bazzj04]

Oi whats up with my avatar then.... You know you want to watch it , haha

[gozgoz]

Ok here's my take on it.

Its Grafter's comment on a sudan conflict. Its a young sudan boy who was dragged into being a child soldier and lost his arm. This is Grafter's tribute to him - a photo taken of him trying to light a cigarette with one arm.

Touching.

Both insightfull and informative as ever, Dan. Thanks for straightening that out for us.

[m@san]

I get it ... she's playing a harmonica !

[Standard]

I like them both, and I can see the arm, although I prefer the softer look to the street piece and the direction of the girl, plus the softer colour of her dress.

nah shes lighting a joint i tell u.

unless thats your secret code for joint..

[stickitup]

both arms easy to see, she is covering her mouth as a comment on how she has no voice in the conflict in her country. although the nearest arm does look a little too bright and it makes the image look a little unbalanced, i think i was expecting to see it half in shadow.

[Grafter]

Update:

[Standard]

These are great.

[European Bob]

think the yelloow looks much nicer than the blue...
top stuff

[monkeyballs]

Is there a harmonica in there somewhere? ;D

[Dellboyy]

Yep, much better with yellow... good stuff!

[cadeallaw]

Wow... Great work as always Grafter

[mj]

I like the yellow version better, great work grafter
