These images are amazing. As you look remember these are on a flat surface.

  The first time I saw some of his work I had a hard time believing it was on a sidewalk.

    does he spray a fixative over it or just let it fade?

I remember traveling around Éurope seeing these quite often and in some of our larger, usually more eastern cities. Really have to wonder how many museum quality renderings washed away when the street cleaner drove by.

I know he spoke with Tech and Puzzleslady and of course the gulchers who are speakers. he missed seeing xthinker-but x will see several gulchers at the porcfest next week. lots of gulcher meetups! X is teaching a class there on survival. I hope he posts about it. saw an Atlas Production screening on THursday night, but didn't meet any gulchers.:(

Love to have the talent to do that in paint on my hardwood floors! Absolutely amazing! You want faux marble, any kind of stone, brick, wood or such, I'm your gal...but this? Oh my goodness - I am in awe.

Thank you for this post, I really enjoyed viewing his work, his talent. :)

is he a one and only artist in this medium or are there others; regardless he is spectacular to be able to see these images in his mind and then putting them on a solid surface for anyone who sees them to marvel and enjoy them.

  I've only seen his work. I don't know how he can see things like that.
