Swoon

Category: Street Art by fatcap @ 10:23 am

Swoon is a street artist from New York who specializes in life-size wheatpaste prints and paper cutouts of figures. She started doing street art around 1999. She studied painting at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn.
Swoon’s worlds are often populated by realistically rendered cut-out street people, often her friends and family. Riding bikes, talking on a stoop, going grocery shopping - these people traverse a cityscape of her own unique invention.

Enjoy the talent!

The Mac, is a graffiti artist from Phoenix. Here’s a piece incredible. Why ?

Because when you take this picture and you create its negative (with photoshop for example) you’ll get the picture with the real colors! It’s negative graffiti!

As everybody know, negative is about to disappear with the advent of digital technology… fortunately graffiti is alive :)

The original wall looks like this :

And after reverse in your computer with photoshop, here’s what you get :
