byeo   10 #14 Posted February 4, 2016 How can you call it an amazing piece of work when it doesn't look anything like Bowie? There are many artists who could have painted that mural and actually made it look like him.  Yet they didn't, at least this guy tried.

Fudbeer   12 #17 Posted February 4, 2016 Frankly I think its awful.  Does not look like him or catch his personality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
HJO-1403   10 #18 Posted February 4, 2016 There was a David Bowie mural in that place in the past I'm sure. To be fare to the artist of this new one, it looks like he's done it straight on to the wall "freehand" rather than doing a graph or using a projector, which is what most professional mural painters do.  It used to be Jagger I think.  Pretty sure it wasn't supposed to be a portrait, I think people ought to check his usual stuff out before slating him as an artist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
jemson   10 #19 Posted February 4, 2016 It`s a very successful piece of art; lots of people are discussing it. Job done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
TimmyR Â Â 10 #20 Posted February 4, 2016 Yet they didn't, at least this guy tried. Â What if i tried? Someone who has little artistic merit. People would be up in arms calling in vandalism. If someone is to paint a large mural on a public street they should at least have the artistic talent to be able to make a portrait look like the subject.
