More Rinpa Eshidan noodling. What can I say? We’d give these drawers extra noses to come sit in the bowl.

Rinpa Eshidan Bird’s Eye View
Okay, we admit: we’ve been BOWLED over by this Japanese doodling crew. Here they are watched from above. They give new meaning to “action painting”.

Wall Doodling Puzzle
About two weeks ago we stumbled upon Rinpaeshidan, a drawing team in Japan. We can’t get enough of them. There is something kind of magical on their willingness to draw on top of each other.
This is a good idea they had: to make a four panel drawing that they can switch around the panels like a puzzle. Check out their website too for more good stuff. I think we will be seeing a lot from this crew.
Thanks to Doodlage, last week I stumbled upon this Japanese doodling crew, Rinpa Eshidan. Ever since I wandered into a Chelsea gallery last year and saw the work of Buenos Aires based Blu I have been hungry for more “draw over” work.
Blu and this Japanese crew go at with an exuberance that’s hard to beat. Blu’s got more of a narrative blend and complete mindblowing silliness. Rinpa Eshidan is more decorative, but certainly not lacking in the other departments either. We featured them over at Bowl Of Noses last week, but you can expect to see more of them I am sure.

These People Can Draw Draw Draw!
This is a week of wall doodling from Japan. Black on white, then white on black, then white on that, and so on, and so forth, until…. well, check it out. It makes me want to get some really big paper!
Thanks to Doodlage for the tip!
Banksy maybe becoming a bit ubiquitous (okay say that ten-times-fast), but I definitely think he makes the world a better place. (See early post here).
WebUrbanist meanwhile keeps doing damn good curating on a daily basis. They are definitely on my list: One-Hundred-Blogs-You-Must-Subscribe-To-Before-You-Die-List. If I was president I would add two hours to each day just so I could surf through their site. Yesterday they started an eight part series dedicated to the unknown man. So if you were wondering, that’s why I was in such a smiley mood.
Today (07.22.08) WebUrbanist posted part two on the stencils of Banksy.

Leave It To Banksy
Cannes has been too expensive for me to attend the last couple of years. And it is really elitist, isn’t it?
Leave it to Banksy to solve all those problems. Welcome to The Cans Festival. Well, London is still pricey, but… YouTube is still free (tip from Bryan B.)
The Banksy book “Wall And Piece” has been a popular one in our house. My son spotted some wild-posting for a recent show of Banksy’s on the day it opened and not only got us there ahead of the swarm but proceeded to pontificate to all attendees on the quality and political ramifications of his various pranks. Not bad for someone barely over 4 feet tall. Banksy’s done more to keep politics and resistance fun and accessible than anyone since The Clash.
