Vespa

I painted a very nice 2 pieces canvas for a Vespa store a while back, and i only posted one of the two on my website due to the way the picture was taken.

I now found the picture of the 2 canvas and im posting it here so you can feast your eyes.

That painting was made for Motion Urbaines a cool store in Mont-royal district ,Montreal.

My first gallery show

Throughout the years i have spent painting murals , i saved on the side a few occasional canvas. They were usually made on new years eve to act as a milestone.

Now have the chance to share them with you in the flesh, and believe me looking at a picture just don’t render the full spectrum of emotions that goes tru you when your eyes sees the real thing.

Come see the real thing.

I will also unveil two new masterpiece NEVER SEEN and fresh for this event. Its all going down from 15 June 2007 to 15 July 2007 in Lachine, Montreal check out the flyer below for more info.

They drive me freakishly insane!!!

We all have them once in a while, and that’s still too often. Very difficult clients. And it can happen to you even if your act with the utmost precautions. Why? Well put it this way, any good client can turn sour even after been screened as potential. And obviously the other way around is also a possibility, a fragile prospect turned into successful project.

With this in mind i though sharing previous article from my website was a good thing to do in order to inform the innocent and remind those who know.

• How to deal with difficult people
• How to deal with difficult people (partII)

And while were at it let’s check out this great article about educating your client so you don’t have to see him turn sour.

The trap is also an interesting concept

<< The client also wants to impress us. If we allow the client believe that we think they should know something about design, they’ll usually fall all over themselves to try and convince us that they do know something about design. >>

go read this, and ponder my friends.

Here we go!

I really wanted to do this for a while, blog like a maniac!

This will be the home of my experiments and general urbanities.

Let’s start!

Some of you may know, some may not but i have a website to display my work already here so i don’t see the point of reposting everything over here, instead i will try posting stuff exclusively for Urban bebop.

Take this one for example…

Painted for a breakfast resto , funny thing, at the time i did not have a studio available so i ended up making this on top of a bar my friend owned back then (2001).
