Any Artist Out There?

I think I've seen his work on the side of buildings.
 
Seen that before on the Quarter about 25 years ago. I've always enjoyed the irony of using a product that destroys the atmosphere of a real world in the creation of an atmosphere of a fictitious one. Well, at least they say it does...

I really dig how he did the buildings.
 
When I was in China about 10 years ago I ran into a street artist in Guangzhou who painted this picture of cherry blossoms for me. Had I not watched the picture being painted I would not have believed how he did it. He put drops of his paint on the paper with a bamboo skewer and then blew them into the shape he wanted with a long thin bamboo straw and his breath. No brush, no other tools of any kind to guide the drops or create the shapes. It took him about 30 minutes to complete this 2' x 4' painting. Only the inscription was done with a calligraphy brush (and I can't remember what it says).
