London based artist Conor Harrington was recently in Spain for the Wide Walls Event where he laced the streets Mallorca with a new piece. Conor stays true to his dripping technique in this portrait of a young boy (above), the monochromatic palette allowing the drama of the image to shine.
Fin Dac and Dtoar, have been working on a new collaboration in the streets of LA. Their styles intertwine perfectly, delivering a wholly harmonious piece. Like with Conor Harrington, the lack of color creates a focus on shapes and shadows to create movement and realism. This explosion of monochromatic tones carry as much vivacity as any use of color could. From textured brush strokes to dynamic framing, these artists have monochromes down pat.
