Lol! No.....but then I would never paint in public. I would photograph it and paint at home.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond I definitely would not. Part of that would be out of a sense of my lack of talent.

Maybe he is just attention seeking.

Why not. He doesn't seem to be impeding any foot traffic.

If I were a painter and if I wanted to paint that view then yes I would.

here, one needs a permit to do that and there are specific spots where one is allowed. that said, people are generally receptive (at least where i am) of activities like this although there's always the odd one who would cause mischief or trouble just because they wanted to. i don't fancy myself doing this, though - the people with real talent would be laughing at me.

Heheee... If I could paint like that, I probably would. But at my skill level, I stick to the corner with the back at the wall and moreover, to a rather small format (A5 or A6). Anyhow, if I did go out like that, I would probably need a permit for a fortnight.... to paint that scene :D :D :D
it is interesting what Vikki said about the permit. I have no idea if that would be necessary where I live. I wouldn't even know where to ask for such a thing. Anyhow, I keep it small and inconspicuous.
I do go out and sketch, but rarely - and I can find a million reasons to stay at home :D

@30pics4jackiesdiamond I was just wondering if you asked for permission to photograph the artist. - also on the topic of permits.

@monikozi oops no I didn't
@summerfield I don't like his style very much
@kjarn he was selling from a cart in front of him
@randystreat he was a bit
@onewing or advertising
@grammyn me too! And laziness to lug all that kit
@casablanca I am taking my travel paints away, but will copy from photo in privacy

Perhaps hoping for a sale or a commision

@30pics4jackiesdiamond It feels so much safer to paint at home 😉
