BREAKIN CONVENTION - court yard art....

breakin convention "court yard art" was an idea i had on the first meeting with the guys at sadlers wells theatre and breakin convention organization. as i was walking to the venue i noticed a small car park to the rear of the theatre, straight away i was thinking that somthing should happen there. so i mentioned to the guys and they thought it was a great idea. so the first event i worked on with them i arranged for artists to paint LIVE, it was great, we had a leat 300 people come by and have a look. its a kool little spot and many of the people attending the convention have to walk past it to enter the theatre, also there are many passing public who also are intrested in what is going on. the convention is a 3 day event and i try to have a leat 3 artist each day paint. can i say THANK YOU to all the artists that have been apart of the breakin convention over the past 4 years, here are some of the artists i have invited to breakin convention and some of the art works.(sorry if your works is not here) blade,nash,tumki,bonzai,antistaik,belin,kak,bird272,hush,tank petrol,kisk,brave1,keen1,probs,zadox,funa grafik,rocket,via graffik,demo, i am sure there are more but the names escape me   (shame on me)
