San Antonio Street Paintings

As a friend and I were walking through downtown San Antonio tonight, we came upon a very interesting scene. On a street corner directly across from the Alamo, there were two men sitting on metal chairs between old-style rotating police siren lights, with heavy metal music blaring loudly. Both were wearing respirators and goggles. They were painting feverishly, using spray paint, sponges, razors, and blow torches. The scene was energetic, fast paced, somewhat futuristic, and surreal. Here are some of the paintings that one of the artists was creating.
