Because innovation is everywhere, this is a video of artist Bond Truluv using a spray paint can he modded to spray five parallel lines simultaneously. The resulting piece he creates is neat looking, although I can’t say with confidence I’d want it on the side of my home. Want to

This is a short timelapse video of artist Phil Vance painting a Hunter S. Thompson portrait over the course of six weeks using layers of quotes from the author. The result is most impressive. Per Hunter S. Thompson himself: “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the
