I use “painting” in the sense that pastel is sometimes referred to as painting, because “drawing” doesn’t seem quite accurate.

The images are done in colored chalk, and wash away in the rain, only to exist in photographs.

TRULY AMAZING! now when 'we' say 'painting'...is it watercolor? Most of the artist i've read about use chalk! IF that's the case - they are truly artistic martyrs!!! When the elements are ready to rain or weather over the art - it's gone! 'Tis the age! When we view this earth and what it gives - and time takes it away!' â€“ Mark Jaquette mj @ illustrationism & bammgraphics

I love these paintings. They’re the kind of art that seems like it would take a LOT of effort, and I really admire that.

Charley,

Interesting post as always. Just a minor correction: It’s Rod Tryon, not Tyron.
