Been a while since I did a weird art posting…
Simply must check out this site www.dirtycarart.com. This guy (Scott Wade) does some crazy/amazing stuff with a dirty car window…anything from cartoony faces to the mona lisa to scenic vistas to dogs playing poker! Really, really cool. Here’s his info from the site…
“Like any reasonably creative and curious human, Scott can’t resist a dirty car window. We suspect Scott started off with clever sayings like “wash me”. Probably his first image was the ubiquitous smiley face. Unlike most folks however, Scott lives on a mile and a half of dirt road – caliche, the locals call it, road base: a blend of limestone dust and gravel and clay. Driving over the surface results in a fine, white dust that billows up behind any vehicle that’s driven faster than a galloping turtle, coating the rear window. Being an experience artist (and lets face it a little … different), it wasn’t long before Scott was experimenting with techniques to achieve these amazing detailed and shaded drawings.”
Go take a peek at his gallery of temporary art. Totally amazing!
