He is bewitching.

Interesting that in the rare painting in which he shows a face he does not depict the eyes.

The pair linking hands beneath the window is very endearing. :-D

Yes indeed. The eyes are always closed (look within) or looking into the clouds or rainbow, some enticing fragment of imagination, or we see two faces practically melted into one another showing total absorption in each other. I think he is clearly giving us the message from the 'Little Prince': "What's really important is invisible to the eye." You can't physically see it, you need to turn within or tune into another person. The rest just falls away.

He is bewitching, I agree. There is something about this man that comes across very strongly through his art work. He has a gentleness about him, a captivating intelligence, and genuine warmth. A wonderful artist, and I expect, a lovely man. I will see if I can find another interview with him.

I'm so glad you are all falling for his charm.

Gosh I wonder if any children have smashed their heads into the wall - or if they have nightmares of children eating walls!!
I like the way the hopscotch leads into the wall.

ha! It seems like you're seeing street art through some scary lense today, Moonchime... or perhaps I've got my rose tainted ones on? I thought this was just about a wishful disappearing into an unknown mystery world? :-D :035:

I'm so loving Seth! The sweetness of childhood and childhood innocent friendship rains down in beautiful and satiating color. He leads us with a fresh breezy wink and gentle appreciation of his subjects. The simplicity at his loving hand makes me want to kiss him on the lips. You know, he isn't bad looking either... I cannot pick a favorite. I'm loving each one.

:57: I enjoy the enthusiasm, Mz L, but may I just remind you that I saw him first? :P

I still live in hope that someone at an airport (or anywhere really) will call me one too some time.

Your wish is our command, Mz Moonchime, we shall bare it in mind.

We are eagerly waiting for you to display such behaviour that should call for this distinguished title. :72:

I am intrigued though...why an airport? :57:
