I wish I did. It was so long ago, back in the day when I didn't even think about taking pics.

Simply.....awesome. I rather get a random caricature anywhere but an amusement park. Think about it, you go to an amusement park and get one, there is no story behind. You get one at some random location, completely unaware and you have a story to tell for the rest of your life. Another thing that I found very fascinating is that this artist, without really saying one word is bonding complete strangers through art. Everyone wants to see what the other persons canvas looks like. One last thing, this is really a great way to make quick cash. He doesn't ask for money. He's just drawing for the love of it and gives the art away. But once the recipient sees it, they are compelled to tip, even if they had no intention of doing so. I really wish the guy that video taped this would have posted info about the artist. At least give us his name so that we can search out his stuff online.

rather inventive... That stuff needs some video.

Little sounds bites or making of... hell I don't care.

Brian Dettmer Book Surgeon

Brian Dettmer, a New York-based artist known as the Book Surgeon, uses tweezers, knives, scalpels and other surgical tools to dissect and carve old books into intricate and beautiful sculptures.

Dettmer’s work has a sort of vintage touch to it because he uses old books – maps, encyclopedias, textbooks, manuals, and any other sort of literature that he can turn into an interesting piece of art.

Although his creative process does end up destroying (or adding to, depending on how you look at it) someone else’s creation, Dettmer has a different take on it; “My work is a collaboration with the existing material and its past creators and the completed pieces expose new relationships of the book’s internal elements exactly where they have been since their original conception.”

Oh Lordy, I want that Breaking Bad one as a full size poster hanging on my wall! It's very 'Drew Struzan'.

The Lau stuff is very reminiscent of Frank Frazetta, who I've looked at from my earliest memories. No problem of keeping that style alive. Keep it it up dude.
