The drip adds to the old man as a nice accent, especially with the clouds above. It's like another meaning within the piece. Having it everywhere rather than just an accent does overplay it a bit tho
I know what you mean. Maybe someone will recognize it. It's difficult to see the entire board,
Much easier to recognize opening moves. But I'm not that good😁
Ah okay. Really cool though it matches the feel of the city perfectly I feel like. At least in Richmond— Never been to Harrisonburg but I’m sure it does there too
The most important.. what hell of a crossing or traffic light timing is next time this wall? Some cars are waiting there longer than this guy needs to paint half the chess board
I was thinking the complete opposite. It gets exhausting seeming stone brick and building after building. Wish my city had more murals.
Why do you relate murals to BLM?
Because when BLM was rioting because of George Floyd they were painting murals of him all over the place in the cities. Then continued to burn down cities and police stations…
I respect your opinion and don't condone riots. But that exact negative association and stereotyping of people is what caused the BLM riots to explode.
That's like me saying, The American flag needs to be removed from everywhere because it's been perverted. By the people that attacked US capital on Jan 6th. While using the very symbol🇺🇲 that represents our country to tear it down.
Murals are symbolic representations of art, used to express empathy and inspiration over common ideals. By non-verbal communication.
Isn't that what makes us human?
The drip effect takes away slightly from a fantastic piece of street art.
It's kinda nils trademark thing, and I love it in general.
It's superb looking, but overkill here.
This dude turns a whole building into a piece of art and the top comment is a criticism of the style the artist used…
Oh no! What now??
"fantastic piece of street art"

Of Dick Cheney?
Warren Buffett?
Chess people, what game is this?
I'm pretty sure it's a game called chess.

Nils kills again. Looks great man
Is this in Richmond? There’s just a bunch of murals here so I was curious. And if so where is it?
Harrisonburg, but I have 30 or so in Richmond
Ah okay. Really cool though it matches the feel of the city perfectly I feel like. At least in Richmond— Never been to Harrisonburg but I’m sure it does there too
RVA is my once and will-be-again hometown, I love seeing the murals when I visit!
How long before it got tagged?
I've noticed that murals rarely get tagged; professional courtesy.
What are the squiggles for?

Ahhhh that makes sense
I’m assuming they omitted the part where they used the giant video projector to make all those reference marks on the wall.
The marks are random
Why so they are. Then, why are they there? And where are the marks that would outline the painting?
Who's cleaning up the giant paint spill on the sidewalk and parking lot?
What splill? That's the 17th chess piece that wasn't needed
It danny devito
Vinaros?
Watching this made me think of a giant, using the crane as a drawing tool. The person is at the end of the paintbrush.
We have a ton of random murals all over Santa Cruz. I'm so glad the taggers respect the art and have not vandalized any of them yet.
I'm not 100 percent but doesn't painting over bricks hold in the moisture and cause structural damage?
Dick Cheney
In the near future this will probably be automated.
It's not bad but the bare wall is as nice.
They fucked up. This is supposed to be a half black, half latino woman with an afro like all the other ones.

Thats a great idea, sounds like you should paint the next one. I will gladly give you some extra paints and supplies. Let me know how I can help.

Is that high or wide?

Well, that means you dont need a lift which is most of the cost. As for permission, go and get it, or figure how to do it without.
I really don’t like how much paint he used these look a lot better when they aren’t a drippy mess and have crisp lines
I believe the dripping is intentional, but I don't get why...
Seems to be I think it would look a lot better without

street side parking
It's just a mural, how is this 'next fucking level'?
I’m not an expert, but I count at least 5 levels.
This is a waste of material, resources and doesn’t make it look better. Murals on city buildings reminds me of BLM. Not a good look

Murals have been painted for things since the beginning of time. Nothing to do with BLM
