When I selected this Zake column piece to post I realised just how far behind I am with the blog these days, and that is entirely due to the huge volume of art dropping on the streets of Bristol. I venture out about four times a week, and each time probably photograph between six and ten new pieces on average, which equates to something like 24-40 new artworks each week every week. I usually post two pieces a day, sometimes three, so we are looking at about 20 posts maximum. You can see the deficit straight away, and this doesn’t include festivals such as Upfest or Cheltenham Paint Festival, where the pieces may reach 200 or so. This is a good problem to have, I guess, and maybe I have a project for my retirement, posting from the archives.
Zake will always be a column specialist, and many of his earliest pieces in Bristol were painted on columns only a hundred meters or so from here. In this one he has painted three faces stacked on top of one another, each with amazing depth and interesting expressions. Three for the price of one from Zake.
