STREET ART ZINE and sketch.


I have been taking lots Photos of the street Art here, Its a gold mine. once you starting looking you find it everywhere. infact i have never actualy seen anyone stick or paste or spray anything, but their must be hordes of people doing it at some time. so i guess it must be at night or really early in the morning or something.
so i love the stickers and stencils the most, most tags are pretty lame. but there is a few good ones here and there.
I dont know who the artists are of some of these stickers and pasties, but they get around. i keep finding the same artists in all sorts of crazy nooks and behind and under things.
Their seems to be a few rulez, like no tagging gov buildings and new shiny walls.
so i have put all my 1 megapixel photos into my own zines. So far i have made about 5 copies an 2 issues.
if anyone would like one, please email me your address and i will send you a Zine if you send me something.(surprise me)
other wise i will keep making them for the sake of my own enjoyment.
here are issues 1 and 2.
also heres a call to anyone that might be able to help.....
please help me get in touch with some of these amazing artists!

This is a new sketch i did a few days ago.

more walking and drawing.




i walked from shinjuku to shibuya and around between the two.

This is city
is filled with iconic images waiting to be photographed.

i found a cool gallery
with a selection of japanese artists and others. here is 2 images of Clay Models. quite large.... they look strangely real.

the name tag is for the girl in red. it would be nice to sell your work for 6000 dollers a piece.
i really like the blue guy.
it has so much life and coolness in it.
actually it oozes coolness.

Monday:

Its hot...its humid, its tokyo summer almost!
so i lay in front of the steiro with some new cds i got from the ¥100 box. i had picked some good ones! lucky because i buy random cds if i like the cover artwork!
someone made me a very strong coffie and buzzed the rest of the day with the tunes and artwork.
also i chucked on some Andy and george band who i miss greatly and i have know split! ;-( so that was nice to listen to.
anyway today im working a new large artwork.
its quite a different size to what im used to.
so there is alot of paper to cover and problem solving to be done.
i will post a picture of this work soon.

Market Stall


Its Golden Week in Japan. Festive holiday goodness!
Yesterday i had a Market stall in my local Park, Inokashirakoen.
Every Weekend there is a fantastic Art Market with everything from
buskers to creative people doing their thing!!

i sold a few pictures, drew quite a few more, had some great chats and spoke my simple japanese to anyone that would listen.
also i had the chance to meet some of the other people at the market.
There is such an amazing variety of Artists at the market and everyone is so passionate. 
i feel so happy to be able to join in.

Here some of the People who sell their Art works at the Park.


Hope
Naoki-san does the most amazing pen and ink drawings.
