Watching this stuff is amazing!
While down in Nuevo Progreso, Mexico, we ran into this incredible street artist. Like many artists who use spray paint and some peculiar techniques to create amazing artwork, he was a pleasure to watch and we were glad that our @little-peppers were able to check it out in person.
Often, from the finished product alone, you don't really appreciate all of the work that goes into a piece like this. I sped up his work 2X to make the video a little shorter, so the actual process was twice as long. Still, for twenty minutes, I think he did amazing.
I asked him if I could video, and he said "$5 for the show," in a joking manner, but I still thanked him and paid up. Upon finishing, he referred to himself as "the Mexican Picasso," so that's what I'll call him too, although I was able to make more sense of his art than his namesake.

This is so interesting
It really is!
Wow, my love for street art is unimaginable, apart from the fact the where I stay, street art isn't common I still love it. Most time I get to watch this Hollywood teens movies where you would see some art in display.
@papa-pepper doesn't he have an account or a net for where I can follow him up and keep an eye on him. I really love his talent. My regards to him.
I'll ask him if I see him today, but it may be unlikely.
I'll really appreciate that.
WOW!!! Stunning art - I hope you are taking that one home to hang on your wall RESTEEMED😍🍀🦋🌈🌴🌅
Okay, @papa-pepper. That. Was. Spectacular.
I know the video was sped up, but he still did that painting in around 20-30 minutes right? The speed alone would be amazing, but the fact that it actually looked like anything, looked awesome, was so detailed and with all the vibrant colors. I'm literally shaking my head. This guy is good.
The flame throwing at the end, though. That's worth the price, right there. :)
Did you guys happen to purchase that work of art? Or was that for someone else?
It was for the other man standing by, otherwise I would have bought it. Yeah, it only took him about 20 minutes total, and that fire is a cool way to dry it!
When i was at mallorca i buyed me this one
years ago.... its amazing to see what they do in a short time and less of techniques
Very nice! Looks great to me! I think I'm going to try to make some of my own when I get home.
i tried and failed it looks much easier then it is ^^
Guy is a genius amazing 💯🐒
Yeah, totally. We just saw his brother make a different one today, and we bought it!
Wow runs in the family, some of the best talent goes unnoticed and ends up selling on the market I find. Did you get him on Steemit to sell on here haha 💯🐒
Now that is what I call a most amazing way to spend your time, watching someone create something beautiful out of an empty canvas! I see these street artists all over Mexico and the Caribbean and they still put me in awe.
So adept at throwing down the right colors and shapes and texturing with tools and layer upon layer of paint. And it looks like they are just putting it together with no purpose and it comes out looking like wall-worthy art.
I would have to say you got off cheap for the $5.00 show.
Thanks for showing off his God-given talent.
Upped and Steemed
Tip!
I was glad to pay him just to watch. WE went back today and watched his brother... this time we bought the painting too.
I have paid to watch too. Gladly. Kudos for going back and supporting the local artists. They are truly amazing.
Have a great night and I would love to see it hung!!

So much talent out there it is amazing.
Amen to that!
So beautiful! I also like painting, but this exceeded me! I'm proud of my brother Mexican. Greetings from Venezuela!
We really enjoyed watching it, and I'm glad to be able to share.
I love watching these artists do th9is it is amazing to me how quickly that create such a cool painting
I can't wait to get home and give it a try. I use spraypaint anyway for a lot of my art... when I make it.
Thats cool I look forward to seeing what you come up with :)
I enjoyed watching this video. Amazing how much some people can create out of so little.
I hear you. Why waste money on a paintbrush when you can tear cardbord, or grab a plastic bag?
Watching that video was so satisfying amazing time you had there for sure beautiful street artwork :)
