Ponsonby mural day1

I've started my section of the big mural in Ponsonby, on the fence around the infamous "SoHole".

Gonna blog up progress shots, here's the first day. . rough outlines, some distant hills, sky and sea. typical 19th century NZ landscape watercolour! that's real hardcore graffiti for ya

out of the rubble

just got back from dear old Christchurch. First, a couple of latest pieces:



that first one is from a classic CHCH graf spot (which i was the first to paint, in 1998) the sheep sheds:


meanwhile, the central city is in stages of post-quake destruction. These are some places i used to frequently frequent, now scarcely recognisable...

Fracking hell

FYI:"fracking - pounding streams of high pressure water and chemicals into rock formations to loosen gas deposits", or in other words, fucking the earth for corporate profit.

check out this article the other day about how it CAUSES EARTHQUAKES...

I'm in Christchurch (aka Quake City) this week, and coincidently, just saw an interesting post on Facebook, behold:

..did a quick search and found this article about it, with CHCH's slimy mayor uncharacteristicly questioning government greed.. This is actually only a chunk of all the "exploration" permits our capitalist government is currently handing out to offshore companies without public knowledge. :(
