French Street Artist Paints 3D Creature Graffiti And It’s Not For The Faint Of Heart (30 New Pics)
Interview With ArtistThe streets of cities can be quite boring and dull. That's why it's fun to see them being brought to life by amazing and creative street artists. Not all people love graffiti, but it's difficult to not like these unique and magnificent creations by Pierrot (Scaf).
The artist creates amazing 3D graffiti illusions and they look like they're about to jump off the wall. If someone didn't expect to see a dinosaur or a lion around the corner, they would be in for the scare of their life. Pierrot often takes before and after pictures of the places he transforms and it's amazing to see the transition from a simple wall to a work of art.

I hereby move that this amazing artist be hired to decorate all ugly industrial sites. Water towers, factories, and the like. We need more whimsy in life.
there's some ugly eyesores here in my county that need prettied up but my couny thinks all it's ugliness is beautifull
Pierrot started his own company where he paints his artwork for people. On his website, Pierrot writes: "Passionate about drawing, I founded my decoration company GrafoDeco. Addressing both individuals and professionals (public or private companies), event organizers, associations, or all those who are anxious to bring a touch of originality to their interior or exterior decorations. I paint all supports (walls, panels, canvases ...) and of all sizes."
Pierrot didn't study in any art schools or anything similar. He started like most street artists—on the streets. He learned everything he knows on his own or from other artists. In a previous interview, Pierrot mentioned that he was inspired by a school friend to start creating art.
How is this even accomplished? Now im going to have to find a tutorial
I love how he's posing with his painting, but unless he wants typhoid or dysentery he better get up off that filthy floor!
I don't like this one. It's too messy and looks like he lost the cats one leg in the painting, and the ones that are in the painting are off. It doesn't flow, it's difficult to look at.
There are all the legs in the painting, but I agree with everything else you've said. The last leg is on the ground :)

The level at which you have to understand perspective, light, and many other things is insane and requires a lot of experience. This shows perfectly that street art is not always just vandalism, it's also an amazing and very technical art form.
Although it is quite wonderful, he messed up here in the fact that the woman's index finger should be pressing the nozzle of the can in order for the paint to come out.
Pierrot tops off his amazing graffiti by coming up with fun ways to photograph it. He makes his art interactive so that people can take fun and unique photos with all kinds of creatures, characters, and even animals that don't exist anymore. Pierrot himself dresses and poses with his work, which often is one of the reasons his work goes viral.
This brought a memory back from a movie, but I need help which movie it was. A dragon-like creature died when he choked on a golf ball.
We got an interview from Pierrot and asked what the goal of his street art is: "My primary goal is to make people laugh. For people to have fun and escape by looking at my paintings. I have been drawing since I was little, my cousin drew a lot, and I started vandal graffiti in 2001 with a school friend."
Imagine a night of bar hopping and turning the corner to see this.
I don't see any thistles in his paw. Maybe the candy and flowers will calm him down.
"The hardest part is not repeating myself over time. I always try to create something new. Sometimes animals come back in my paintings, but I'm usually trying to find something that best suits the wall. I need to paint without always doing the same; it's quite difficult over time."
Have to do anything for that PS5.. WHAT’S SAD IS THAT I CAN’T SELL MY KIDNEY
Liar- liar pants on fire (unless u paint as good as him)
Load More Replies...We asked Pierrot what topics he chooses for his graffiti: "I don't have a particular subject or theme in mind. I don't convey a specific message through my art. I just try to keep it childish and fun."
Our all-time favorite. We have these wee claustrophobic huts in front of Manhattan court houses, in parking lots, &c. If they were a bit wider & taller~~w/windows on both sides~~Pierrot Scaf's enchanting, dazzling & high-octane art would be functional...& cheer up the citizenry in every hamlet, town or metropolis. More lodge than kennel, s'il vous plaît. Thanx, Frenchie! P.S. When "ticket" window is open, it's a one-eyed monster shed.
"My style is mostly 3D and quite cartoon-like. It depends on the moment. However, the main goal is to make people smile. So that the people who discover my paintings will have a moment of lightness in a world where everything goes so fast and crazy. I watch a lot of cartoons. My goal is also to get away from the problems of everyday life and dream."
Maybe you want to burn the 31 December of 2019 and stop the world there before the madness
I think we'd have to burn 7 November 2016 in the US.

I also come up with ideas by looking at the wall I'm about to work on. The idea comes to me because the general shape of the wall is different (angles or wall superposition). I try to change the main subject of my art often. I don't want to get stuck doing the same thing over and over again."
"I started doing 3D designs 5 or 6 years ago, but I've been painting for 20 years. I still hope to paint even being old with a long white beard, young people will call me 'the old fool of the village.'"
Pierrot shares what inspires him to keep on creating: "My friends and traveling motivate me to always be more detailed and complicated. I challenge myself constantly. I am never very happy with the final result of my paintings, so I always try to do better every time, when possible."
Well, it *would*, but unfortunately the spots don't look as accurate as the gorgeous rest of it. 🤔😕

heheh.....ermmm....sir, the webs come out of their other side.
We asked the artist if people ever get upset at his graffiti: "No, people mostly like it, or just don't care. I live in a village in the northeast of France. People do not look too much at graffiti and are not always fond of art."
Here is some advice from the artist for people who want to create art: "Always practice, don't watch social networks and media, especially at the beginning. Paint, paint, and paint again. Especially for fun, not for the money or to be known. It's a passion before it becomes a profession."
"Sure, the supervisor is over there... Behind that door... Within the belly of the beast...." "HEY!! Where are you running to? It's THIS way!!"
Pierrot tells us more about himself: "I paint almost every day. I live very simply. My pleasure above all is to paint, find abandoned places and later find ideas for paintings for them. I do a lot of sports, like breakdance. However, I do less and less because I am getting older, it starts hurting everywhere over time."
I fully expect that to start moving or blink or something. OwO That's so awesome!
You have to be french to really get that joke: in french when we are drunk we say that "we are seeing pink elephants", that's why he is posing with a bottle of wine
OMG that's what I'm wondering now. Is it really him in the others or is he painted in?
Load More Replies...Although I absolutely adore Joaquin Phoenix, I would have loved to see this as a Heath Ledger Joker.
I agree, Heath Ledger would have been preferred-hopefully he will do Heath
Load More Replies...I love how all of the accessories (bucket, posters etc) add to the illusion that the painted wall is actually the ground.
Waiting to come out... And KILL!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Load More Replies...These are awesome! Does anyone know where any of these locations are?
The Santa Snake picture says its in Le MUR in Paris.
