My favourite anonymous street artist lives in the same area as me, and recently they’ve been much more active.
All around the city they graffiti positive messages, and everytime I’m down, I always come across their art like a little Easter egg and it makes my day.
Last year I came across a gallery selling their art, after almost 3 years of following their work and attempting to find them. The gallery owner was moving and could not fit the piece through their new gallery, so I picked it up. I negotiated hard though, the piece was originally around $1100, but I got it for $700, since I sent pictures of the artists’ precious work around the city.
After closing the deal, I got laid off the next week, and the piece was due to arrive, which took 4 movers to lift it through my balcony. I was very grateful to receive what I thought was a sign from the universe. I’ll put the piece I bought in the comments below. 7 replies
