TECHNIQUE

Armed with wheat paste, spray cans, brushes and paint buckets, he brings his art to the street, the gallery, and on screen. From screen prints to stencils and spray paints, it’s a pure sensory experience. It reflects human aspirations and a visual social commentary, preaching “Follow your Dreams” and “Life is Beautiful.” Mr. Brainwash has a unique success story, which never followed societal norms or protocol. His shows are journeys – self-guided tours through a pop culture wonderland: Joyous and beautiful. His artwork is sometimes impromptu, and like so many of the subjects depicted in his art, timeless.
