NICE UP THE WALLS round four tuff gong

TUFF GONG STUDIOS

THREE MILES

KINGSTON

                    As if i was going to leave Jamaica without painting Panthera Leo...

people have been asking for this since i have been on island...but i was saving it. We had met up with Lorna from Tuff Gong a week or so back to discuss what walls we could paint...they showed us a few and i said...ummmm...can i have that one up there please...another roof top...and a nice big one at that...probably gonna run out of paint but it will be seen from the main road so gotta be done...on telling Lorna i was painting a lion and with the Ethopian crown she went from a very chilaxed sisterin to a jumping screaming bean...so i guess she was happy about that...she asked when we wanted to paint and i said well would be cool to do it on Bobs Earthstrong....hang on Lorna, stop bouncing now...i think that twice i gave her the answers she wanted to hear...

SOOOOO 6th february started for us down at the Bob Marley museum, with lots of true rasta. Chanting to Nyabingi drums...o yeah and Sizzla was with us dancing away...then we made our way towards the Tuff Gong to paint...another beautiful sunny day in Jamaica...maybe a bit too much sun for my empress though, heat stroke is getting to her...and o my Jah Jahs way too many mozzies and just as the repellent ran out...so not cool...

Took two full days painting, largely due to heat though, its definitely slowing me down... plus trying to swack a mosquito half way up a ladder with my shorts falling off, pockets stuffed with tins and hands full...not an easy circus skill...

    
Had to drop back down to the wall a third time to put up the logos as we had forgotten the stencils the previous day...you know how they say things happen for reasons...well Craigy T from T.O.K happened to be visiting. He posed for some flicks, and told us how the guys had been considering setting up a visual arts school on island just like we are hoping to do...SHUT up Craigy, you fe real...so looks like a link up is gonna start with these guys...following on from that he said, im getting you some press coverage, two days later we back again being filmed for intense long side TVJ...nice up that...
here is a  link to the VIDEO broadcasting...
