StreetArt Penang

Street Art in Penang Heritage Town area is the Hot Topic whenever people talks about Penang lately.
done by Ernest Zacharevic, a Lithuanian artist. He created a series of site-specific wall paintings in conjunction with the George Town Festival 2012.

after months, as a Penangite, I finally get the chance again to walk around heritage town, but this time I manage to find some of those street arts. Ebony asked me out with the main purpose for shooting but we ended up talking and updating each other more than we shoot. :X

The street arts are all around the heritage area, it's like playing hide and seek with you. Here are some that we found after 3 hours under the hot sun,

Friend that help me bought it helped me get the artist's signature too! Spot that Zach to Camy? Appreciate much! :D

you can get the book in Murobond Penang, 209 Hutton Lane. It only cost RM25 and i feel that it's quite worth it as the quality is good.
If not, you can get it at http://zachas.com/streetart-nb/streetart-notebook---buy-now/ which cost RM35 include postage.

semangat Penang!!!
