Clever with the shadow against the wall. That assumes that the light came from the opposite direction and at a certain angle.

What vision and skill. I know it comes from mastery of simple techniques, but to me, a certified non-artist, it is magic.

The democrat clown car or America after they fix us?

What the heck was it before the painting? A concrete box?

Stunning. 👊🏼

A burned out bus makes me think of riots and terrorist attacks.

Tomcc said...

Amazing! That shadow is very clever.

Classic and beautiful Trompe-l'oeil.

I recognize this. It's New Jersey transit............./s

It's almost like there's a beat-up old bus in that room.

That shadow is very clever.

The shadow doesn't match the room's lighting.

It would be cooler if the guy sitting on the bus cast a shadow.

Hey, I'm an art critic!

Fernandinande said...

It's a simulation of a bus, therefore god.

It would be interesting to see it from a different angle.

I like how the pile of trash on the floor in the back blends in perfectly. Very realistic.

Deep Fake technology is here.

They can put any ones face on any person saying anything.

The people currently in control of this technology, Google and a few other groups, are not good people. They are actively working with China to implement technologies aimed at repression.

Our institutions in this country are not up to this challenge right now.

Everyone needs to be aware and be ready for what is coming.

Expect a lot of videos or people saying and doing racist things.

That is a nice painting.

Where is thy sting?

Wince said...

How many hours? Seems pretty isolated for that kind of investment of time and talent.

Yancey Ward said...

That is awesome!

cf said...

very excellent from this perspective.
i have to guess the seats and inside, with the steps going up, were all created for the point of view of the camera, and would not work so well from other angles.

and, in my enjoyment, I showed the image to my husband, and he said, "mmm. all that work . . . for what exactly?" something like that. I could only smile and shrug.

talented fellow, may he go far.

Wow! Turned a burnt out bus into a concrete box! Maybe he just bricked it in.

Eddie said...

Really, no Boris Johnson comments?

gerry said...

Wow. Real news about a fake bus.

I love that art, that painting! It's clever and beautiful, not blobs of crap on pedestals for which people in New York are willing to pay big bucks.

I hope he makes a ton of money.
