Hi from Belmar NJ where we did a quick but fun 3D street painting for the Belmar ArtWalk 2017 on April 29th.
Not our typical size or time to finish but definitely bright and electric colors and opportunity to do some art in our tri state area around New York City.
It was a beautiful day for street painting as I did a small for me (five by eight foot) 3D of three brightly colored fish swimming around - but not in - a fishbowl tus the name for the piece ' Inside Out Fishbowl'...
A fun one day piece and the weather was great!
Finished in early afternoon - Then came the pictures and another fun artwork. Look forward to summer street paintings to share locally with our communities in the tri state area around NYC.
Art for After Hours is pleased and honored to present
‘Liberty Tree’ a 3D illusionary design by internationally recognized 3D 4D
Chalk Artist Anthony Cappetto and the team of Wendy Stum and new team member Holland
Waters Winslow.
In the spirit of the historic theme of the Liberty Tree in
which the famous quotation by Thomas Jefferson stated:
“The tree of liberty
must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
We intend to ignore the tyrants completely. We strive to honor and respect our patriots
fully and completely in this artwork which will measure 15 by 30 feet in size.
Upon completion of our piece, we invite those who have are
serving, have served, or those who have loved ones who gave their lives for
this country to chalk their names on the leaves of the Liberty Tree.
When we run out of leaves, people can write those names at
the base of the artwork as well.

Happy New Year from Wendy and I at Blog Now on streetpainting.tv! We are very excited about 2013 in terms of the festivals and events for the street painting community and are sharing what we are seeing. stay tuned on developments for these festivals, events, and sharing of pictures from our experiences over the years.
We are particularly happy to see the return of one of our favorite street painting festivals, albeit in a new form - The festival is now Italian Street Painting Marin, scheduled for June 29th and 30th, 2013, led by Festival Director Sue Carlomagno! As a historical note, it is at the former Youth in Arts Italian Street Painting Festival in which I street painted for the very first time in 2001, and we see where that has led as a street painting artist! Again very happy to see these developments and hope to be sharing more about the Festival with our readers during 2013!
Blog Now on streetpainting.tv has learned of the developing Blumberg Street Art Festival in Blumberg, Germany, scheduled for July 13th and 14th 2013. More on the festival as information comes in...
The Fourth Street Painting Festival in Toulon, France will be on May 25th and 26th, 2013 at the Place D'Armes.

Festival Bella Via:
...Street painting at the top of the mountain the challenge of opening a new cultural space, can be said that it was a challenge to overcome. Street painting between the Sun and the clouds, framed by the Sierra Madre, the Cerro de las Mitras, the Cerro del Topo and our flagship Cerro de la Silla. It has been a unique experience, and perhaps even repeatable.
This experience, Festival Bella Via, reaffirms as a cultural gesture, and socially strengthens as a formative activity, and service vocation to the citizen.
During the two days of the realization, we were visited by around 20,000 spectators, who came to live the already traditional ephemeral art of the FBV. To the beating of drums, and our flag (Mexico) hoisted, the soil of the Esplanade from the viewpoint of the bishopric, was covered with art centenary art madonnari...

Happy New Year 2012 from Blog Now on streetpainting.tv!!!
That being said, now on to where Blog Now will be going this year in 2012...
Wendy and I wish to apologize to our readers for being quiet during the last part of 2011. We admit that we have been very involved with a series of street painting art projects with our other company, Art for After Hours which has kept us particulary busy. While we were in the midst of these activities, we gave serious thought as to how we wanted to make Blog Now even better and more engaging than we have had before. And this is what we are thinking...
Starting this week, Blog Now on streetpainting.tv is moving to posting daily with posts, discussion, and thoughts about street painting art, festivals, and observed developments which we see as our way of sharing our appreciation and attention relevant to a blog such as ours that is "..for artists, festivals, and fans..."
Watch very soon for Blog Nows posting on the winners at the Festival Bella Via 2011, but also short posts about the many artists who created work for the festival who are the backbone of such exciting international street painting art competitions such as this.
There will also be similar coverage short posts from events that we have attended in Saarasota, FL as well as events coming up this year in the USA, Mexico, and Europe through local reporters on the scene, and of course our level, journalistic coverage of festival directors and industry professionals in all locations.
Pictured above: We noticed this street painting at the Sarasota Chalk Festival and we recalled the life of Toto de Angelis (Straccetto) who left us in 2011. His experience as a Madonnaro in the true sense is an inspiration to every one of us who all who street paint, chalk, screeve anywhere in the world today.
Have a very Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year from Wendy and I at Blog Now on streetpainting.tv.
Hi from Duluth, GA, where I was able to bring 3D street painting to the visitors to the Barefoot in the Park Arts Festival this May as the featured 3D street painting artist. I had a great time creating the art and getting to know everyone during the weekend.
The concept was to create a scene overlooking the Duluth area, with a grand waterfall at the left, a rock wall in the distance, and a cliff at the right. The 3D street painting was 16 feet wide at the top by 30 feet long and took me 2 and a half days to create.
Featured above are the organizers of Barefoot in the Park and I am in black at the top center.
I had a great time and look forward to street painting again soon!
Hello to all of our regular readers and a Happy New Year 2011!
2011 is going to be a time of growing in the world of street painting art with newer festivals become part of the street painting landscape along with a new generation of street painting artists making their mark on the scene.
Blog Now on streetpainting.tv is happy to be reaching out to festival directors, street painting artists, and the growing fan base around the world discovering our 400 year old plus art form in the world of new media and technologies in a partnership - not a competition - with the live viewing experience one can only have by attending a street painting festival in your area, wherever that might be.
As streetpainting.tv, Wendy and I have been so glad to be part of street painting to interview many artists over the years in Monterrey, Mexico at Festival Bella Via and making new friends in street painting at the Sarasota Chalk Festival last October. We are working on interview videos with artists from Monterrey and Sarasota and plan to have even more videos up and running on the websites and online sources of streetpainting.tv. We can be seen on our streetpainting.tv branded site/channels on YouTube, Facebook Fan Page,Twitter, Livestream and plan to spread into the fabric of social networking and mobility to bring street painting art to as many as possible in the ways that work best for our growing base of viewers with a library closing in on 300 videos and counting.
We are supportive of all the new festivals arising in Europe, around the rest of the world, and across the USA. Streetpainting.tv will be happy to bring our unique one on one interviewing (thanks to Wendy) to any interested festivals anywhere who will be glad to have us on the media team.
Of course, we have not forgotten the festivals that have brought street painting to popularity before the advent of our current internet age such as the festivals of California, such as the I Madonnari in Santa Barbara, and the Italian Street Painting Festival by Youth in Arts in San Rafael and the many others in the USA such as the Lake Worth Street Painting Festival in Florida, the Via Colori Festivals, and the many others across the country.
And then there is Italy, where the art of the Madonnari began, the home of the Competition at Grazie which brought Madonnari together from 1972 after it was thought the art form may have begun to fade away. The importance and tradition of the Italian festivals and the longtime Madonnari is clear and in our respect, a special thanks to our fellow street painters from Italy who bring material for posts to us during the year.
Thanks to all, especially our readers for being a part of our blog and video channel in 2010 and we hope to bring as much street painting to you as we can in 2011.
Street painter Anthony Cappetto was asked to create a Holiday-themed street painting for the 'Making Merry in Berry Hill' holiday event in Nashville, TN. His 8' x 18' piece took him 2 1/2 days to complete and was the centerpiece of the event! The people of Berry Hill (a section of Nashville) really enjoyed watching him work as well as the finished 3D anamorphic street painting.
Blog Now on Streetpainting.tv wishes all of our readers a very Happy Holiday Season!

Here is a video of the 3D 'Waterfall' street painting that I added to YouTube for viewing... Thanks!
April 22nd, 2010 marked the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day and street painting artists Rod Tryon and Anthony Cappetto worked together to create a beautiful 3D street painting, celebrating the day and sharing their work with the people at the Winter Garden of the World Financial Center in New York City.
The 3D street painting measured 15' x 20' and took four days to complete using chalk pastels. Wendy Stum from Blog Now on streetpainting.tv was on hand to talk about the art to people who work in the area, visitors, and school groups stopping by everyday to watch the progress.

Working together, Anthony Cappetto (left) and Rod Tryon (right) build up the flat rocks and the cliffs, tying the artistic elements into a unified art work.
Interested onlookers view 'Koi Pond' while the street painters focus on the task ahead - completion of the street painting to share with everyone at the World Financial Center.
When 'Koi Pond' was completed, many people including school groups came by to view the finished work, which was beautiful and refreshing.
Street painting artists Rod Tryon and Anthony Cappetto proudly pose with their completed 3D 'Koi Pond' street painting. The experience to create and to share art with the public is one of the most important aspects of the street painting art form.
