Benjamin Verdonck is a weird, humorous, creative genious. We love him. His latest project is causing a stir and from the footy, you can see why.
BLU, is an Italian street artist with a gift. BLU has been in the game for awhile now but his street art has never been animated like the video you are about to watch below. This video is a trip to say the least and you better have 7 minutes to spare in order to watch this thing, but trust me, you won’t be able to stop watching once you start.
Check out this early street art footy from KAWS. If you are a street artist and you think you are forging new trails and doing new things, think again. KAWS was doing that back in 1997. Respect your elders.
SheOne has style and it shows in his artwork. Check out the video below from a live painting event SheOne did for Addict Clothing in Vancouver.
