This Sunday artists and residents painted on the central tourist street of Amsterdam. I joined as helper … and had a lot of fun. Here are some of the pictures.

You can see more (including a cool overview) at the DoubleYouStreetColours website, who organized this event with the help of the W139. Must have been quite some work – there were stencils for 550 meters of road. It took 200 liters of paint 100 artists. We started 7:45 in the morning – it was done and dried around 11. Was a really fun event with many incredibly nice people. Hope the colors last a week.

On a side note, if you’re curious about the indie-game project I’m working on: I’ve posted some art for the commercial levels on our site.

Preparations at 8 in the morning – to avoid the tourists.

At 9 everyone started painting…

…and I’m getting photobombed.

They put ropes up above the street, to make overhead shots.
