Don't tell Lou....I'm in love with Jerome Mesnager

l'homme blanc

Street art is big in Paris.  You will be walking down the street and look up at the side of a building and see it....look at the side of a van and see it....much of it goes way beyond graffiti.

The last time we were in Paris I took this picture in the Marais district.I didn't know who the artist was and I assumed these were stencils....but they aren't.  They are painted by hand by Jerome Mesnager.  I find it fascinating to watch him do these. 



There is a great video montage of his work on his website.  It's worth checking out.
