(Dr Funky - nice level of indignation at this post, i liked it so much it got its own post)
What are you blabbering about Funky?
"push their themes"?
ROA is quite clearly still painting dead animals in black and white!
OK, so he's added armadillos (and a dodgy porcupine) because he's in Mexico, but it's still a dead animal in black and white - hardly a big push!
Or have you mistaken the work of the people he's collaborated with as his work?
ROA is the best dead animals in black and white painting graffiti artist in the world. The problem is every fucking time he paints one I have to see it online, and as he seems to paint one every fucking day I'm constantly fed roadkill, breakfast dinner lunch. it's no wonder it's beginning to make me feel sick
(Dr Funky - yes knew collabs were involved, would ROA venture so far as to use colour? I see the collabs as developing the theme. New animals yes that's developing it too, not much granted but something more than nothing. The placement helps to. Will this begin to annoy me again in a couple of months time probably. Although the thought of people getting on the ROA bandwagon, paying thousands for originals that will go the way of C215's work, fills me with some joy at least)
C215's latest splashy colour stencils look like it's 1985
ReplyDeleteI seriously expect to see stencils of Madonna and Boy George over the rainbow spew
That guy is a massive cunt from what I hear...
Yeah, I was told that C125 is a cunt by Mark Rigney...AKA Hookedblog...AKA shit street artist Mjar. Mind you, I wouldn't trust anything that poisonous little prick says, because he's the most two faced nasty fucker going. He even viciously slags off all of his artist 'mates' as soon as their backs are turned, even though many of them give him free gifts in return for promotion on his blog.
ReplyDeleteC215 has called out Vandalog a few times for talking absolute shit and knowing nothing about art, so he can't be all bad.
never fucking heard of Mjar. After jst doing a search I'm not suprised. Anyone who bases their life on doing childish stickers who isn't a teenage Japanese girl has to be seriously suspect.
ReplyDeleteOh and C215 is one of the best stencil artists going.
ReplyDeleteSo it doesn't say very much for the genre. Kind of like being one the best Morris dancers.
Roa best animal painter no chance.. This guy is

shouldnt be dissed
Boswell? Average at best. I can think of 100's most of which you'd never heard of who can paint better and more creative animals than that.
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to name any though as plenty of muggy cunts with an online gallery and too much spare time on their hands will end up trying to whore them round the usual forums.
I'll keep them to myself and the few others who truly appreciate them and not have their work sullied by a bunch of money grubbing chancers.
I had the "pleasure" of talking to C215 on the telephone
ReplyDeleteI say talking, but all he was doing was shouting and cursing me out because I'd painted over a piece by a friend of his (someone who had already painted over me, and lazily. And, as it turns out, couldn't give a shit since he'd "got his photo")
C215 was proud to tell me that he'd been in prison. I later heard it was for manslaughter.
He is a complete cunt
p.s. the person who compared stencil art to morris dancing - fucking BRILLIANT! you made my day!
That was me and it's so true on every level that extends to the parallels between folkies and the stencil appreciators.
ReplyDeleteJust replace penny whistles for a DJ mix app on a Iphone and beards for ironic moustaches.
It's all godfucking awful.
I'm gonna stab the next cunt I see with tight jeans and a handlebar moustache.
ReplyDeleteFreddie Mercury ?
ReplyDeleteVandalog?
ReplyDeletehe wishes he could grow a tache so he could draw attention from his balding bean head.
