Big Bojo recently gave a framed photo of this painting to Joey Biden as Frederick Douglass was one of his heroes.

- I was walking into Bloomingdale's once and he was walking in, too. He was wearing a funny navy sailor blazer and looked a bit of a character.nb
- He held the door for the next person but suddenly everyone assumed he was a doorman & he just held the door for like 20 people and was all WTF?!?nb
- Life of a famous artist! :)nb

- Pretty intense and bad ass, but I'm pretty sure that all the neighbors love the dark creepiness of the mural.utopian

This is more graffiti really, but it'll go in street art as we never used spraypaint apart from doing the little blue dots.
My mate had been talking about painting this spot for a while and having had a bit of downtime with work I thought lets do it.
Started at 9am on a sunday and were done by 3pm, all rollers and brushes. We painted our names really big on a main street during the day, but I tried to pick colours and a design that wasn't too offensive.Throughout the day people were asking us if it was the council who'd paid us and thanked us for painting what was a horrible eyesore which was totally ignored by whoever owned the land.
One woman brought us a coffee and some baklava which was a welcome sugar rush.
I also left with a list of contacts for local council groups and MP's whom I'll chase up for mural opportunities.The area we painted is sort of neglected, it's a busy spot near the city centre, but at the moment all the money is going to another area, Leith.
I'd went home and came back to get photos and just as I was leaving I heard a little kid come down the stairs of his flat and as he got to the street he exclaimed "I'm freeee!" turning the corner to see the wall he said "WOW!" and kept running up the street.
There's a wall round the corner and the residents we chatted to said we could paint a mural on it too.

- How do you keep proportions on big stuff like this?grafician
- Some folk use grids to sketch up, but there's a new technique people use with overlaying their sketch over a squiggle grid on their phone now that's super easyPhanLo
