(Day 1) He starts with outlines.
(Day 2) He paints a base using paint mixed with sugar.
(Day 3) He's mostly done with it at this point. (I got there after he'd gone back to Baltimore for the day so he's not in these pictures.)
(Day 4) All done! He covers it with a fixative spray to make sure it sticks around for a month or so. (It started raining that night.)
Watch mural artist Michael Kirby recreate a detail of a Falnama image in conjunction with the Sackler Gallery’s newest exhibition, which opens to the public on Saturday, October 24.
Kirby has studied fresco painting in Italy and modern mural techniques in Mexico. After creating public art around the world, he returned to his hometown of Baltimore, where he established his own studio. He uses pastels, lacquers, and tempera paints in his “ephemeral mural paintings,” or street paintings. From Tuesday, October 20, through Sunday, October 25, he reproduces a detail of a sun from an image first created in Safavid Iran in the 1580s.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
