Portrait Painted on an Ice FloeStreet Art Utopia introduces us to the works of David Popa, an artist from New York City who has settled in Finland. He began as a muralist, but has moved far beyond the limits of concrete buildings. His most recent piece is very ephemeral, as it’s painted on ice. His work actually began breaking down during production when it split down the middle.After mounting the ice floe in southern Finland, Popa sprayed charcoal and saltwater. The ice readily absorbed the charcoal, which meant that Popa had to reapply it several times in locations in order to get darker hues.#streetart #ice #portraits #DavidPopa

Street Art of Three Wise Men Show Different Gift Buying OptionsThe Gospel of Matthew holds that three wise men (probably mystics and astrologers) visited the newborn Jesus in Bethlehem and presented with gifts of gold, frankincense (a type of tree resin), and the perfume myrrh. Catholics and other western churches celebrate this event annually on January 6 as the Feast of the Epiphany.On this occasion, street artist TVboy La Mostra created this mural showing the three wise men presenting different sorts of gifts. Well, possibly the same gifts but packaged differently. If I needed to get gold, frankincense, and myrrh, then I’d consider AliExpress, eBay, and Amazon as potential sources.-via Street Art Utopia#streetart #TVBOY #Epiphany

The artwork, titled The Golden Legend, was commissioned by the International Contemporary Art Festival. The mural, located in Guarda, Portugal, shows a large snake slithering down the staircase as a blond girl stands on guard, ready to fight it.SFHIR specializes in imposing murals that combine spray paint graffiti with paintings using different tools such as airbrushes, brushes, and rollers. His skills are reflected in the intricate artwork details in the stand-off between the snake and the little girl. To showcase the various details in The Golden Legend, the viewers of the mural are placed in specific areas of the public space so they can get a perfect view of the artwork from different perspectives.
