Street Art: JimmyC

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Australian street artist Jimmy C (known as James Cochran) paints portraits using small dots or streaks of colours to represent light and shadow. He often portrays these portraits with shapes, such as orbs or urban-esque landscape in the foreground or with the illusion of motion. Several pieces of his work can be discovered around Shoreditch and Brick Lane in London.
