Monday Mural: looking askance

Recently there seems to be a number of food and entertainment joints that have closed down in this one block stretch of Uptown.  When this happens, street artists move in and use the spaces to ply their trade.  Here is a piece by GATS on what seems was a sign on a now defunct business.  You can't miss his style.  This is a half face from the cheeks up with abstracted names of street artists running down the nose.  To my eye it has the look of Maori tattoos.  Don't know who drew the woman, but she appears a smidge uncertain about the guy she's glancing at.

  3. I don't blame her for looking a bit uncertain - and I'm glad you explained, even so, I had to give it second and third look to properly see the half face!

  4. An interesting mix. I like the woman's face, even if she is uncertain.

  6. It's got a bit of a macabre style to it.
